Design Entry

Hi,

I'm new to the data2mem tool, and I'm trying to use it with an elf input file.  First, I've compiled a very simple test program using sparc-elf-gcc (a LEON3 compiler).  Next, according to the Data2Mem user guide (UG437) on page 21 the following commad should dump the hex contents of the elf file:  data2mem -bd <file>.elf -d

Unfortunately, nothing happens when I run that command.  My goal in using Data2Mem is to create *.vhd files to simulate with and synthesize with.  Is this tool meant to be used with a specific compiler (IE MicroBlaze)?  Or have I misunderstood the tool?

Thanks!

Nathan.

I had the same problem.  I switched to SDK 13.2 and now it works.  There is something wrong with SDK 13.1 - it would dump nothing.  Scary stuff.  Lucky me I started learning with SDK 13.1 :(.  Now next question is where is the errata on these tools?
