Hi all,Yes, its true. You will not be able to run tricks like self-modifying code that resides in flash. You would have to move such a routine to RAM and execute it there.
I'm going to be using a real hardware for the first time (with ECOS). The h/w is the Atmel AT91SAM7X512 SoC.
In order to save RAM, i'll be running the code from the on-chip flash itself (512KB).
Now is it true that if my code resides on the flash, I will not be able to write to it? I.e is the whole flash area is marked as readonly?
Thanks, -mandeep
