Hello, I have been using the CARM-Compiler together with the ARM-STR710FZ2 controller. Now I want to convert this project to the RV-Compiler. How can I use the malloc and sizof function to work correctly with the RV-Compiler. The Init_mempool I used with the CARM-Compiler doesn't work. Can someone help me or have some experience concerning this problem. thanks Manfred
"How can I use [insert implementation-defined function here] to work correctly with [insert name of implementation here]." Surely the answer to such questions is always to read the manual for the specific implementaion?! Just as the CARM manual told you about init_mempool for CARM, so the RV manual will tell you what to do for RV!
In this particular case, since it was Keil themselves that discontinued CARM in favour of RealView, one might hope that Keil would provide a specific documnet that describes how to migrate from their old tools to their "new" offering...? Erik did post a comment to similar effect recently, but I can't find it. :-(
Manfred, Take a look at example: \Keil\Arm\RV30\Examples\Memory.Uv2 Memory.C contains a 'malloc()'. This requires a heap, it is setup in Startup.s; check the definition of 'Heap_Size' in Startup.S. This basically replaces 'Init_mempool' Peter
