Linker and Utilities
5.10 Map Files
The map file contains information relating to the relocation of psects and the addresses assigned to
symbols within those psects.
5.10.1 Generation
If compilation is being performed via HI-TIDE
having to adjust the compiler options. If you are using the driver from the command line then you’ll
need to use the -M option, see Section 2.4.9.
executed, then no map file is produced. The linker will still produce a map file even if it encounters
errors, which will allow you to use this file to track down the cause of the errors. However, if the
linker ultimately reports too many errors then it did not run to completion, and the map file will
be either not created or not complete. You can use the --ERRORS option on the command line, or as
an alternate MPLAB IDE setting, to increase the number of errors before the compiler applications
give up. See Section
5.10.2 Contents
The sections in the map file, in order of appearance, are as follows:
Portions of an example map file, along with explanatory text, are shown in the following sections.
Map files are produced by the linker. If the compilation process is stopped before the linker is
