Question about debug archive in nightly was created by lcc014
In nightly build archive, there is a debug-devo7e-v4.0.1-xxxx.zip. What is this "debug" archive for ? It contains a bunch of .elf files.
Thanks,

If you get a transmitter crash/reboot, you can provide the debug file and your error.log back to me and I may be able to see where in the code it crashed. Since the code changes every day, and we don't keep the builds around, I provide the debug file as part of the release so you can store it until you need it. The process is non-trivial and requires being familiar with ARM assembly, so it isn't something I've documented in the past.

Thank you for the explanation. Do we have any sticky in this forum to explain the steps of capturing the debug file and error.log ?

There is this:
www.deviationtx.com/wiki/reporting_bugs
Basically, there is no way to force capture these things. If your transmitter crashes, the errors.txt file will be generated on the transmitter (actually the file is always there, but will be re-generated when the tx crashes). On the Devo7e, these are of very limited value, but it is better than nothing.
