#128346 - it seems that this is hardwired in SDCC...
Responding to: ???'s previous message

Another untested idea that may be bad.

A quick test indicates it works.

It looks from your snippet like the linker does output symbols for the beginning and end of each segment.

So, the next question is: can you create your own segments?


A quick look into the SDCC sources (OK, not so quick, it's really ... ehm... huge...) indicates that the segments are hardwired, ehm, hardcoded. Even the asm there is tagged as to be custom modified just for SDCC use.

But, this sounds that this would be the way to go for this problem in commercial C-s, is it? I am of course interested in trying a couple of them, too, after learning the quirks of this one... maybe just trying to port the present project to these...

(SDCC): How to point to end of used memory?            01/01/70 00:00      
   Make a dummy variable ???            01/01/70 00:00      
      A Better Idea            01/01/70 00:00      
         Good Point            01/01/70 00:00      
            A good point indeed...            01/01/70 00:00

      this is still my fixation to asm....            01/01/70 00:00      
         Try this snippet?            01/01/70 00:00

                  More guessing            01/01/70 00:00      
               like that snippet?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Yes!            01/01/70 00:00      
                  nice...            01/01/70 00:00      
   you do not want a 'heap' in '51 C, however            01/01/70 00:00

         NO, no, no            01/01/70 00:00      
            inline assembly versus separate assembly file            01/01/70 00:00      
               separate file is nicer            01/01/70 00:00

         be sure or not to be?            01/01/70 00:00      
            easy            01/01/70 00:00      
               I'd disagree on this one...            01/01/70 00:00      
         well, you have to mix to get that            01/01/70 00:00
