Hello,
It WAS the 64K segment limit. Apparently one must do more than
just create separate segments of the appropriate size. In the
Project Settings>Linker>68K Linker
dialog it is necessary to turn off the Link Single Segment setting.
Obvious in retrospect, but very confusing for a person who's building
a multisegment program for the first time.
Now I have another problem. There is a bus error as soon as I enter
a function in a different segment from the start up segment. This is
happening within StartApplication(). Must I wait until after
StartApplication() before running code in a second segment, or is
there something else wrong? I'm running POSE 2.1d29 with a
3.0 IIIx ROM.
I'm going to cross post this message to the emulator-forum, since
I have no way of knowing whether this is an emulator problem or
a CW problem or a PalmOS problem or just stupidity on my part.
Sorry for the extra traffic.
Thanks,
Greg Bungo
