    Hello ,

    What is A2L file ?

    SPC5Studio is using Hightec gcc and Free Gcc (PPC VLE) (from gcc 4.9.4)

    the compiler is located in :

    c:\SPC5Studio-6.0-DOYLE\eclipse\plugins\com.st.tools.spc5.tools.gnu.gcc.ppcvle.win32_4.9.4.****\

    You are free to use in order to generate the compiler.

    Best regards

    Erwan

    Hi Erwan,

    Thanks for the answer. A2L file is a description file twinned to Hex file that contains the symbols and addresses of global variables. This is used in Measurement and Calibration using XCP protocol.

    I was wondering if there is a way to generate A2L file along with Hex file during compilation. Is there any recommendation from ST about how to do this?
