assign value to flash memory

Xarion Comoretto

Hi Guys

How am i able to assign values to a variable i have stored in flash so that it is included in the hex file?

For example: i have declared a variable
volatile unsigned char code err_msgs[10][20] _at_ FLASHSTART;

but cannot assign an initial value to it and have to write it's value to flash when my program starts.

    Don't you believe in the compiler being capable enough to zero-terminate your strings for you?

    The only time the compiler will not zero-terminate a string, is if you assign to a fixed-size array, and the string has as many characters as the array - but then, no "\0" will help you since there are no room for that character...
