Re: [Sdcc-user] Code size and functions

[Jatin Bhateja]

Sergio,   I  have been working with SDCC for quite some time now. Worked in all the phases of SDCC. One advice I would like to give you is the front end of SDCC is not much stable. We can Write plenty of test cases which violate C-Standard by easily pass in this.   If you want to start the stabilization process of this quite good Microcontroller compiler start Form the front end. Also some times the iCode produced is incorrect but due to some kludge Solutions in CSE optimization pass correct iCode is passed to back end.   I have also fixed several bugs in SDCC but I don’t know the procedure to submit the patches. Also I would like to enquire how to be a member of developers group of SDCC.   Regards, Jatin From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sergio X Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2006 7:02 PM To: sdcc-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Sdcc-user] Code size and functions     2006/7/4, Maarten Brock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Dave, I have been elected to be on the SDCC developer team, but I can assure I have had very little training in writing compilers at the university. I consider myself a trained professional in writing software be it embedded or not, but I will not claim I'm an expert on writing compilers. To me working on SDCC is a hobby. I do not quite understand why you fell over my remark and my fellow developers did not (yet?). And if you look at the changelog you would also see there are always only a few active developers at any certain time. I do not hold that against anyone, it's just an observation. But if I have offended any of my fellow developers I apologize to them.

As write in my first email to the list, I'm new in the 8051 world, and I don't have experience in development under this architecture. For this, I do the questions of my first email, thinking, may be, I use erroneously some sdcc options. I don't want say any like if is "bad" the sdcc compiler. I yust think "It's great", but I don't know how it work; and for this I do some questions. Thank's all, and specialy to Maarten for the right options for work with the DS89C430.
