Hi

It is possible to load several applications in Ride7.
You just have to add the elf of the applications to the project (with a code offset so they are load in a known address)
If one application call the other it will be possible to debug it.

Hi, matloub,
Thank you for your advice , I will study such way.

So, I found UTIL_GetAppAddress() function in util.c.
http://www.stm32circle.com/circleos_doc … tml#l00649

Would anybody show me how to use this function? Can it to solve this problem?

Hi,

The function "UTIL_GetAppAddress()" gives the address of a loaded CircleOS application, founded in the FAT (application list).
You can call it with the name of your second application as parameter, and then jump to the returned address in order to launch your application.
