Hi at arist's Has anyone experience with a "C" compiler which is able to generate ROM/RAM separated code like the u-Power-Pascal compiler on PDP11 systems ?? I use the MCC assembler successfully but I must switch over to a High-Level language because of complex arithmetic functions. Any comments and inputs are welcome. Regards, Reinhard

| 165.1 | It's mentioned in the MWC documentation | PRNSYS::LOMICKAJ | Jeff Lomicka | Tue Jul 19 1988 11:23 | 9 | 
| Mark Williams C's linker has a "-R" switch that is used to set the "relocation base", and according to the documentation, is "used primarily to produce output files that can be burned into ROM.". I don't know exactly what it does for you, but you may wish to investigate it. The compiler does keep separate Psect's for code and data, and even keeps a separate Psect for readonly data. It shouldn't be too hard to post-process the relocatable image into the proper format for ROMs, but you don't get it for free, you'd have to write some code. | |||||
| 165.2 | Thanks, GEM support ? | MUNICH::HEUBERGER | Thu Jul 21 1988 10:26 | 12 | |

    Many thanks for this info !
    
    I will order the Mark Williams "C" compiler a.s.a.p. 
    There is only the problem here in Germany to get the
    new version V3.0 ( as far as I know ).
    By the way, does anyone know to get GEM support and
    "C"-ANSI support included in V3.0. ?
    
    Regards, Reinhard
