Does any one else have problems with the higher levels of optimisation available to C51? With common block subroutines switched on, sometimes, just sometimes, C51 will generate completely wrong code. I have noticed that the problems are often associated with pointers that are automatic variables and where there is a variable of the same name in another function. Common block subroutines have a dramatic affect on code size, but I don't use this level of optimisation because it just does not seem to be reliable.
"pointers that are automatic variables and where there is a variable of the same name in another function." Is that any variable of the same name, or does it have to be the same type as well?
