ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a system and method for field updating software in wireless communications devices. The software in the devices is organized into libraries referenced or organized by symbols, and is organized into associated code segments or sections. Software can be changed in the field by downloading, through a wireless connection, individual code sections. The downloaded code sections are incorporated into a code base or in the referenced section of the library, and then executed. Also disclosed is a code section management tool, which includes the ability to properly load the downloaded sections into the executable software.
