3. Running the Linker
Creating the Linker Command File (via .CDB)
When you have finished creating memory regions and allocating sections into these memory
areas (i.e. when you save the .CDB file), the CCS configuration tool creates five files. One of the
files is BIOS’s cfg.cmd file — a linker command file.
