Hello, I want to allocate a memory in a memory pool, so I call "init_mempool" function like this:
init_mempool (&XBYTE[0x0400], 0x0C00);
mempool .... the '51 ain't no PC how few do realize that? Erik
"the '51 ain't no PC" For a PC Application, the author doesn't know how much memory will be available when it actually gets run by the customer on the cusomer's equipment - so dynamic allocation makes sense. (same applies to other Computer systems) On an embedded system (especially 8051-based), the amount of memory usually is known at compile time - so dynamic allocation makes little sense (especially on an 8051-based system, where resources are generally limited).
