I have a MCS51 project which is compiled in small memory model, now I want to add a module to the project, the source files of the module comes from other non-C51 project, so I want to compile these source files with C51 in small memory model, but want to allocate all the global variables in this module to the XDATA ram. I don't want to modify each variable to XDATA one by one, so is there any simple way to implement this requirment?
Your kind support is highly appreciated!
Thanks & Regards aolin
"I take Andy's suggestion one step further, and actually have different files for different compilers."
Ah yes - you've mentioned it before. It sounds a jolly good idea - I might change to doing it that way...
I would still include a check in each file to prevent it being "accidentally" used with the wrong compiler; eg,
// c51.h #ifdef __C51__ // C51 stuff here #else #error Wrong compiler! #endif // end of file
