6.2 multigen

multigen [ -b base | --base base ] deffile.def

The multigen utility generates an assembly language source file and a linker script for use in projects with multiple code resources (see section 3. Multiple code resources). The assembly stub file must be compiled in with your application, and the linker script should be added to your link command.

You can write the required assembly language definitions and linker script yourself if you wish, but it is easier to have multigen generate them for you from the relevant clause in your project's definition file (see section 4. Definition files).

multigen reads from `deffile.def' and by default writes the assembler stub file to `deffile-sections.s' and the linker script to `deffile-sections.ld'.

-b base

--base base

Write the assembly language output to `base.s' and the linker script to `base.ld'.
