Managing Packing Properties

The Packing tab allows you to specify the packing format that the linker
uses to place bytes into memory. The choices include No packing or Cus-
tom packing. You can view byte order, which defines the order that bytes
will be placed into memory.
For Blackfin processors, No packing is the only packing method available.
For ADSP-21xx DSPs, both Custom and No packing are available.
To specify packing properties:
1. Right-click a memory segment in the Memory Map pane.
2. Choose Properties and click the Packing tab
