Is the output from mergehex tool deterministic

[dafang982]

I've noticed sometimes the merged hex file differs slightly between different mergehex runs when merging the same hex files. Is this a bug or mergehex tool never guarantees the output is identical?

It must be deterministic. If not there is some bug (that's not likely) or you actually run mergehex with different input files.

If you are 100% sure could you please share the inputs?

Thanks for your quick response. Unfortunately, it's a transient issue. I'll capture the inputs when it happens again.
