Segger Embedded Studio Short __FILE__ Macro

[WestCoastDaz]

Segger Embedded Studio seems to use the full path of the FILE for the __FILE__ macro.  During development this can skew the size of the final image if there are lots of trace macros which rely on the __FILE__ macro and your project is in a deeply nested directory.

Is there anyway to force the __FILE__ macro to only include the file name and not the entire path?

Thanks,

Hi,

The __FILE__ macro is part of the C specification, where it is defined to be "[t]he presumed name of the current source file (a character string literal)." While it is not clear to me whether the path should be included with the file name, from what I can tell the usual implementation is to include the full path.

I did find some suggestions for workarounds that may be of help, in a thread on stack overflow: __FILE__ macro shows full path.
