RE: Testing an application build with H8300 cross compiler

["Arati Dikey" <AratiD at kpit dot com>]

hi !
Linked executable means the final executable file created by the linker
in your case, h8300-hitachi-hms-ld.
This would be a '.out' file. If you see the detail directory listing of
this file, it will show the size of the file in bytes.
Hope its clear now.

Arati.

Hi Arati,
Thanks for your reply.

I still wonder what do you mean by linked executable and how to find its

size?
