Package: sdcc
Version: 2.6.0-5
Severity: normal
The hc08 cpu understands several forms of the mov command, all involving
direct (and indexed) addresses. In particular, this is allowed:
mov #number, *address
while this is not:
mov #number, address
(because it is not a direct address)
When using the second form, the compiler does not complain. It should.
What's worse, when using the second form with an address larger than
255, it cannot generate correct code (because that doesn't exist). The
programmer is not notified about this, which makes finding the bug
extremely hard.
