3.5.9 INCLUDETIME: Create Time in Object File

Tools:

Assembler and linker

Syntax:

INCLUDETIME

=(ON | OFF)

Arguments:

ON: Include time information in object file

OFF: Do not include time information in object file.

Default:

ON

Description:

Normally, each object file created contains a time stamp
indicating the creation time and data as strings. So whenever a
new file is created by one of the tools, the new file gets a new
time stamp entry.

This behavior may be undesirable if a binary file compare has
to be performed. Even if the information in two object files is
the same, the files do not match exactly because the time
stamps are not the same. To avoid such problems, this variable
may be set to OFF. In this case, the time stamp strings for date
and time are “none” in the object file.

The time stamp may be retrieved from the object files using a
decoder.

Example:

INCLUDETIME=OFF

MCUez Shell: Open the Current Configuration dialog.

Select the Additional tab.
Enter the environment variable definition in the list box.
