__DATE__ and RTX51 Tiny give link errors

Patrick Earle

This declaration

const char code* const gBuildDate = __DATE__;

gives lots of link errors when I use RTX51 Tiny but is fine without RTX.
(My program uses conditional compilation to build either a RTX or non-RTX version)
Any ideas?

    Ok Ive realised whats wrong - I was running out of DATA space.
    If I change the declaration to this

    const char code* code gBuildDate = __DATE__;

    its OK.
    I expected since the pointer was 'const' it would automatically go into code space but apparently not, you have to use 'code'.
