Hi,

I'm working on the project which consists of several applications compiled separatlely. Some of them are supplied by another companies and available as binary only. Our build system prepares single hex file with all needed applications and settings in right places.

I'm interested in debugging two applications we develop. I have ELF files for them, but there is no way to flash them directly. I need to flash merged hex file to have target running.

Is there any way to flash hex file and load only symbols from ELF files? I found workaround to debug single application by loading elf with File.Open and then in AfterTargetDownload I erase flash with Target.EraseChip and flash merged hex with Exec.Download. I think this is more like a hack rather than solution and I guess there is simpler way to achieve the same behavior. Moreover this allows me to debug just one application at the time.

In the past I worked with some other debug IDEs which provided functionality to load symbols only. I did not find it in Ozone manual, could you help me with this, please?

Best regards,
TRoland

Hi Fabian,

Thank you for your reply.

I'd like to have 'single click' solution which flashes target before debugging. I think RWM should solve part of my problem - it will reflash only part of memory.

Second part of my problem is to load multiple ELF files at once. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think once I load ELF file with File.Load old symbols are removed. Is there any way to load symbols from 2 ELF files?

Hi Fabian,

Thank you for your explanation!

I'll use RMW for now. I'll keep eye on Ozone updates to not miss multiple ELF files debugging feature in future.

I think we can close thread as solved.

Best regards,
Roland
