[SOLVED] J-Link Settings v. Script Files

Kenny · November 12, 2018 at 7:28 PM

I'm using SES 4.10a on MacOS. It generates <ProjectName>_<Configuration>.jlink files when I start a debug session. For example: SPA_Debug.jlink. These are formatted as so-called settings files rather than script files and I read that the settings files are deprecated.

Why then are these still generated?

Is there an option to specify a path to this file or to suppress them?

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Short answer: Legacy support so new setups work with old setups in theory.

Currently not as they are mostly not used by software anymore and a JLinkScript file would have priority over the settings file.
