I am using an 8051 (C51/BL51) with no off-chip memory. I have two functions with parameters:
void Detect( U8 iLed )
and
static U8 INHSampleHandler( U16 u16Sample )
Now I understand that Keil will allocate a variable (in DATA) for these. The problem seems to be that the locator is using the same memory location for both. I cannot understand why.
Below are excerpts from the scratchpad showing 2 "D:0026H". These are the only places these symbols are declared. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks, Jeff

"of course not, with no local variables what I asked you to do was to show it "with a few local variables" as you stated would be no problem"
So I take it that you didn't pursue the finding of a solution yourself.
I did say that my little code snippet was the starting point. Just consider/remember that parameters and variables do not have to be stored in memory - Hint, no mention of registers.
Please remember, I did say in the same paragraph:
"Of course there are limitations."
And note that for this part, at least, I didn't say there would be 'no problem'.
Anyway ... I do not consider this part of the discussion to be particularly important and I'm not going to get dragged any further into it.
