TASKING VX-toolset for ARM User GuideAssembler option: --emit-localsMenu entry1. Select Assembler » Symbols.2. Enable or disable one or both of the following options:• Emit local EQU symbols• Emit mapping symbols ($a, $t, $d)• Emit local non-EQU symbolsCommand line syntax--emit-locals[=flag,...]You can set the following flags:+/-equs+/-mappings+/-symbolse/Em/Ms/Semit local EQU symbolsemit mapping symbols ($a, $t, $d)emit local non-EQU symbolsDefault: --emit-locals=+mappings,+symbolsDescriptionWith the option --emit-locals=+equs the assembler also emits local EQU symbols to the object file.Normally, only global symbols, mapping symbols and non-EQU local symbols are emitted. Having localsymbols in the object file can be useful for debugging.Mapping symbols are local symbols inside code sections which mark the start of a range of ARMinstructions ($a), a range of Thumb instructions ($t), or a literal pool a.k.a. data pocket ($d). Also, datasections start with a $d symbol. The mapping symbol names are made unique with a'.' character suffixfollowed by a unique integer, for example: $a.1, $t.2 and $d.3. This option only takes effect if local labelsare emitted as well (default).Related informationAssembler directive .EQU502
