Cosmic Compiler for STM8, generating Hex

[old gregg]

I'm trying to use the Cosmic compiler with the STVD program (that keep crashing) from st micoelectronic. I want to create an hex file at the build process but I can't get the output adress path right . The content always end up in the console.

the syntax goes "chex main.o -fi -o?" , -fi being the command to convert to hex, but what do I put after the -o command ?

I tried many things without success.

If it is like most *nix commands, -o <filename>.hex

If you can't get the output to go to a file, redirect it;

chex {whatever} > {some file name}

There's a handy redirection chart here:

[rstofer]

For most *nix programs, the -o file is named first

<command> -o <output file> <input file>

there's a subsitute for the path however "chex -o $(OutputPath)$(TargetSName).s19" but even with that, it doesn't work. I'll try the solution you give and report back.
