Hello Sanita,

This is virtually impossible. There is no standard calling convention for
8051. Every compiler uses its own invention, be it IAR, Keil or SDCC.
AFAIK only Raisonance and Keil are compatible. On top of that every
compiler uses its own object and library format. IAR has no clue how to
interpret the contents of an SDCC generated .rel file nor how to interpret
the sdcclib generated library. SDCC has another tool for generating
libraries called sdar which is similar to gnu AR, but I don't believe IAR
can handle that either.

I'll make the story even worse. It's already difficult to keep source code
compatible between these compilers. The use of <compiler.h> might help a
bit with that.

The above is true for almost every microcontroller and its different
compiler tools. Only for modern 32-bit controllers there is an EABI
definition that is followed by many tools.
