I have a couple more (possibly dumb?) questions about this: First, how does emitting a constant value with the asm() directive result in assigning the specified address as the variable's location? It's not clear to me how this actually functions, given the documentation I've seen for the asm() directive so far at http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/manual/c1308.html Second, is there a means to use a preprocessor symbol to specify the address in one of these directives? Some of the location pragmas in the code that I'm porting use hex constants, while others use preprocessor symbols that are pulled from one of the header files. I'd prefer to avoid needing to hard-code the corresponding addresses in the C code file(s) if possible. It appears that I need to enclose the arguments to the asm() directives in quotes, but that keeps the preprocessor symbols from being evaluated. -- Mark J.
