ELF file format

Hi all,

Is it possible to get the C51 compiler output with ELF format ?.
In other words
Can i extract Map file or listing file with ELF file format using c51 compiler or any other embedded system C compiler?
Thanks in advance.

  • He didn't specify a toolchain (tut, tut) so perhaps he is using ARM?

    He did mention C51 explicitly, though. Which rather strongly disfavours ARM has a likely platform ;-)

    My guess remains to be is he doesn't have the slightest idea what he's talking about.

  • I just assumed he had some third-party tools that chew on ELF files, maybe some sort of script that expects a particular output format that he doesn't want to rewrite to parse Keil's map file.

    The original post asks about extracting map files and listing files, which the Keil tools generate directly. There's no need to convert OMF -> ELF -> map, unless you've already got the ELF -> map part from some other system.

  • "He did mention C51 explicitly"

    So he did - my mistake.
    (trouble is, you can't see the original post while replying to a later post - well, that's my excuse anyway...)

    "...he doesn't have the slightest idea what he's talking about."

    And, until he comes back and clarifies it, neither do we! :-(
