Is there a simple method to generate multiple hex files from a same application with different linker scripts and #defines.

currently i am able to achieve the required result by maintaining two different projects with same source code but different linker scripts.

Hi MicroP1,

Yes we can!
You can use different configurations for your application:
- Right-click on your application
- Select "Properties"
- Create 2 configurations, for instance "BigROM" and "SmallROM"
- For each configuration, choose the appropriate Copiler/assembler/linker options

There you are. When building your application, just select the configuration you want, and launch a build.

Thank You Bruno

i did try the configuration option and it did exactly as i wanted.

and just to automate the task even more (now i am being lazy)

can i generate the hex files with two configuration automatically( i build the project and two hex with different configs are generated.)..!

Hi P1,

There is no such facility within Ride7.
You can write a makefile that would make the trick, but it's another game...
