Is it possible to link ca65 object with ln65816 #24

Hello,

is it possible to link ca65 source code or object with ln65816 with existing tools ?

We have routines written with ca65, and it's should be easier to use it (in order to avoid as65816 conversion)

The ln65816 linker uses ELF object files, if ca65 is able to generate ELF then it might work. I searched a bit but could not find any information what object file format ca65 uses. What happens if you try to add ca65 generated object files as input to ln65816?

ca65 does not generate ELF format, it uses it's own format. I will have a look later

I am trying to see which output i should use for a new target which does not use ELF output format. I close this issue
