static function, because the function is only of local interest and should not be visible to the linkage editor (that's the way to do this in C - they saved keywords - that's a sad story; external functions are "static", too. It would be much better, if there was a keyword "local" to express the same thing. Unfortunately, every function not marked with static is external by default.
Some people do #define Local static because of this. Kind regards Bernd Am 27.03.2014 17:26, schrieb Farley, Peter x23353:
Perhaps turn off optimization and see what the "raw" compiler produces? That may provide a hint to a solution, or it may just leave the function to do what you want and you will have accomplished your task. BTW, why a "static" function? Could that be affecting the way the compiler optimization treats the code? HTH Peter
