hi In language C, how I can obtain each BYTE of a number floating point located in XDATA. Example: If number is -12.5 Address 0 1 2 3 Content 0xC1 0x48 0x00 0x00 How I can consent to each BYTE (0 1 2 3) and to keep it in a variable type char or to write each byte of the number in a port. Some technique exists as XBYTE or something like that.... Thank you,
First, read the section in the manual on data storage formats. That tells you how the individual bytes are laid-out within a larger data item. Then construct a union containing the float and an appropriate set of bytes. Or do it via abstact pointers. Remember that this is unlikely to be portable - if you wanted to move to another compiler, you'd have to read the section in the other compiler's manual on data storage formats and possibly re-construct your union.
