rf82c98b rf28dfb36 47 47 In this case, the first block on the C Heap has 8,058,280 bytes left. 48 48 49 @section How do I convert an executable to IEEE-695? 49 50 51 This section is based on an email from Andrew Bythell 52 <abythell@@nortelnetworks.com> in July 1999. 53 54 Using Objcopy to convert m68k-coff to IEEE did not work. The new IEEE 55 object could not be read by tools like the XRay BDM Debugger. 56 57 The exact nature of this problem is beyond me, but I did narrow it down to a 58 problem with objcopy in binutils 2-9.1. To no surprise, others have 59 discovered this problem as well, as it has been fixed in later releases. 60 61 I compiled a snapshot of the development sources from 07/26/99 and 62 everything now works as it should. The development sources are at 63 http://sourceware.cygnus.com/binutils (thanks Ian!) 64 65 Additional notes on converting an m68k-coff object for use with XRay (and 66 others): 67 68 @enumerate 69 70 71 @item The m68k-coff object must be built with the -gstabs+ flag. The -g flag 72 alone didn't work for me. 73 74 @item Run Objcopy with the --debugging flag to copy debugging information. 75 76 @end enumerate 77 78
