Tool Options 13.4. Assembler Options This section lists all assembler options. All options are the same for all three assemblers, asarm (mixed ARM/Thumb), asarma (ARM only) and asarmt (Thumb only). In the examples we only use asarm. Options in Eclipse versus options on the command line Most command line options have an equivalent option in Eclipse but some options are only available on the command line. Eclipse invokes the assembler via the control program. Therefore, it uses the syntax of the control program to pass options and files to the assembler. If there is no equivalent option in Eclipse, you can specify a command line option in Eclipse as follows: 1. From the Project menu, select Properties for The Properties dialog appears. 2. In the left pane, expand C/C++ Build and select Settings. In the right pane the Settings appear. 3. On the Tool Settings tab, select Assembler » Miscellaneous. 4. In the Additional options field, enter one or more command line options. Because Eclipse uses the control program, Eclipse automatically precedes the option with -Wa to pass the option via the control program directly to the assembler. Note that the options you enter in the Assembler page are not only used for hand-coded assembly files, but also for the assembly files generated by the compiler. Be aware that some command line options are not useful in Eclipse or just do not have any effect. For example, the option -V displays version header information and has no effect in Eclipse. Short and long option names Options can have both short and long names. Short option names always begin with a single minus (-) character, long option names always begin with two minus (--) characters.You can abbreviate long option names as long as it forms a unique name. You can mix short and long option names on the command line. Options can have flags or suboptions. To switch a flag 'on', use a lowercase letter or a +longflag. To switch a flag off, use an uppercase letter or a -longflag. Separate longflags with commas. The following two invocations are equivalent: asarm -l -LeM test.src asarm --list-file --list-format=+symbol,-macro test.src When you do not specify an option, a default value may become active. 541
