Please be sure to check the Preview before posting - your quoting went all wrong in that previous post!

the keil compiler seems (sic) to be generating hex files starting at 2000. There is no "seems" about it - this is clearly documented as one of the limitations of the free evaluation version: http://www.keil.com/demo/limits.asp Even a simple hello.c program when compiled and burnt makes the programmer writes 2200 bytes. What do you mean by "simple"? Remember that printf is an extremely powerful function; therefore an apparently "simple" (sic) program that uses printf can easily use up a great deal of code space! I will post a detailed message tomorrow with the exact bytes for a simple hello.c and a large program. That would be helpful. I said:
Is it possible that whatever you use to "burn" the hex file is working under the false assumption that the records in the Hex file must be in order...? Girish Nikam said:
Sorry. I didnt quite get this. Can you please elaborate ?
Each record in an Intel Hexfile contains the address at which the data is to be loaded. Therefore, there is no need for the records to be in address order - the loader should simply read the address, and store the data at that address. However, some loaders are poorly written, and don't work if the Hex records are not in ascending address order... |

| Yes, you are wrong! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
