extra const data added in CCS3.2

Hi,

I'm using CCS version 3.2 with build tools version
39.5. In my application, I have a wrapper (executable
project) and many algo libraries linked to the main
application. For each of the wrapper file(*.c/*.cpp)
CCS creates a ".const" section with some size
allocated.
In my application this "extra const section" is of 2Kb
size. I excluded all *.c and *.h files except a
main(doesn't have any function body) file but still
this const section exist.

Is there any setting in CCS to elimate this section???
Thanks and regards,

Without going into the details of your question, I would like to remind that
CCS3.2 is only recommended for C64x+ code development. Anything on C5000 and
C2000 and older C6000 devices it is recommended that CCS3.1 with latest
updates be used. Please check the release notes of CCS3.2 carefully. If you
are already aware of this fact, pls ignore the advice.

Hi,

We are using CCS3.2, recommended by TI for our product
development. I verified with C64x+ simulator too...It
creates .const sections for the wrapper files.
Any idea why this .const section required for wrapper
files???

Thanks and regards,
