Hello all, My sincere apologies for posting the same thread again. I found my original thread and replies to that post in my spam folder!!! I am surprised why some mails should land up in spam folder while other from the same mail ID find themselves in the inbox???? Thank you.

To get this I introduced a new section and assigned it an address in makefile. I defined variables, to test, using attribute section. However when I try to debug the code I see the variables are allotted memory locations other than specified in the section? My makefile has the following statement LDFLAGs = -wl,--section-start=.test=0x800100 My .C file has the following statements unsigned char mem3 __attribute__ ((section(".test"))); int mem5 __attribute__ ((section(".test"))); I have also noticed, if I declare a global variable I get overlap error. Please help me solve this problem. Thank you. Nayani _______________________________________________ AVR-GCC-list mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-gcc-list
