Hi,
My application is 6Mb and uses external flash and ram. Additional Memories are enabled so it always generates the BIN file for the external flash. It’s a time consuming process (a lot longer than the normal objcopy method). I’ve tried unticking the ‘bin’ box in the Makefile settings, but that doesn’t apply to the additional memory. It still generates the bin file.
Any chance you could make the ‘bin’ tick box disable the bin file for additional memories too?
Cheers
David
No problem, we have added a per-memory setting that controls the generation of the .bin files.
Please try this build: VisualGDB-5.5.2.3384.msi
Wow, that was quick. I can now turn off the ‘bin’ file generation for external memories. I like the new build window too.
Cheers
David
p/s I think the extension on the build file is incorrect. It downloaded a .man file instead of .msi.
Good to know it works. We have also double-checked the download file extension and it appears correct. If you encounter the issue again, please let us know the repro steps and we will investigate.
The file extension issue is a known peculiarity with IE/Edge. Something about the network not identifying the file type correctly so IE renames it to *.man.
There’s a fix for the server side if you’re interested. It doesn’t bother me though. Renaming the file is easy enough.
Cheers

Thanks for the link. We have reproduced the problem. Indeed, when using Internet Explorer (not Edge) to download the temporary builds that don’t go through our CDN system, the extension changes to .man. it should be indeed trivial to fix it, however due to relatively low impact, we will delay it until the upcoming upgrade of our server framework, so that we could fully test it as a part of the post-upgrade tests. If this becomes more annoying, feel free to ping us and we will consider raising the priority for this.
