batch file

that was quite useful.... thanks...

You do not mention what specific version earlier than 2.34 you are thinking about, so you can't expect specific answers.

So the general answer is: The manual for your compiler should tell what command line options it takes. It should then be quite easy for you to figure out the required contents of a batch file to compile your source files and then link the object files, optionally including debug information.

Automatic creation of batch files is a bonus feature. But the manual should really tell enough for you to do it yourself. And in some situations, you can run a later compiler version and it will show enough information in the logs and list files to help you know what parameters and steps that gets taken and that you have to manually write into the batch file.

Thanks a lot.
Sorry for I forgot to mention I m using v2.31. Pls accept my appologies.
I tried a trial version, uvision3 and tried to create a batch file from there so i could edit it then accordingly for my project.
But I don't know why, i was unable to create the batch file. It just didnt' seem to work at all.(in latest version available for eval)
I have tried the command line option, and it works fine but wanted to know if this batch file option in v2.34 onwards gives some special information.
I am evaluating a tool for code coverage which requires this batch file as input.(now that i tell you my need of batch file afterall).
Have anyof you used any tools for code coverage for any 8051 based asics???
I have only 100 or some free Xdata bytes available for information collection.
