I have a need for making a buffer, the size of which is as large as possible. I know how to do that in assembler; however, not in C. Two ways would work: 1) a pointer to the end of used xdata 2) an array my_array[MAX] I much prefer method #1, but any method that will give me the desired result will be appreciated. Thanks, Erik
Voilà one Reason, why we still use C51 V5.10. We are afraid of surprises. By the way: The assumption is definitely true for the combintion of partial code-segments (i.e. constant data in code). This is a feature on which Keil itself relies with their variable initialization routine ?C_START: a trailing zero linked at the end of ?C_INITSEG stops the initialization. It is also documented, that the customized STARTUP.A51's object file must be the last object file to be specified in the command-line. By the way. I think I remember that you've said, you have an assebler-solution to your problem. But to me this seems to be a linker problem, rather than a translator problem. So: How do you do it with the assembler? Norbert.
