#110464 - File size vs Code size Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Craig Steiner said:
If the OBJ files of this assembler are really hex files then, yes, it's possible they could be larger than those generated by other assemblers. True. But note that this applies only to the file on the disk - it does not affect the size of the actual 8051 executable code! On the other hand, an "Object" file in the conventional sense of the word may contain additional stuff such as symbolic debug information, relocation records, etc - so is also likely to be bigger than the pure binary code image! If you're interested, the Intel Object Module Format (OMF) specification is available on the Keil site: http://www.keil.com/support/docs/163.htm |
