Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for loading an application. An embodiment of the method comprises: selecting, in a programmable read-only memory, a storage space for storing a preset data section in an executable file of an application; copying the preset data section to a memory, and relocating the preset data section based on a start address of the storage space; and copying the relocated preset data section to the storage space. A relocation of a code portion of the executable file in the memory is implemented, and the relocated code portion is then written back into the programmable read-only memory, so that the relocation of the code portion can be completed only by one erase operation for a memory block, thereby reducing system overheads during the application loading process, and reducing wear of the programmable read-only memory.
