package intel_hex

intel_hex

The Intel HEX manipulation library for OCaml provides functions to read, write, and create Intel HEX format data, which is commonly used in embedded systems programming.

Usage

If you are using Dune, add the intel_hex library to your libraries stanza.

Here is an example that creates an IHEX object file with test data and then prints it:

Intel_hex.Record.
  [
      Extended_segment_address 0x0F;
      Data (0x0000, "Hello ");
      Data (0x0007, "World!");
      End_of_file;
  ]
|> Intel_hex.records_to_string 
|> print_endline

:0600000048656C6C6F20E6
:06000700576F726C6421CA
:00000001FF

Also, you can of course read the IHEX object file from other sources:

In_channel.with_open_text "data.hex" Intel_hex.object_of_channel

- : Intel_hex.Object.t = 
{ 
  start_linear_address = 0;
  start_segment_address = {cs = 0; ip = 0};
  chunks = [(240, "Hello "); (247, "World!")]
}

For more documentation you should read the mli files.
