No offense, but it appears that you want two segments but are only specifying one.
What worked for us was downloading the PRC-Tools documentation from sourceforge and reading the base documentation for multi-segment apps. Have a great day! Shawn. Shawn M.

In particular, I would like to put in a separate code segment one function and all functions called by it (they aren't called by anything else). So far, I've done the following: 1) Added a Sections.def file to my project, with the following contents: application { "AppName" CrID } multiple code { "code1" } (where "Appname" is the name of my application and "CrID" is its creator ID). 2) Added a Sections.h file to my project, with the following contents: #ifndef _SECTIONS_H #define _SECTIONS_H #define SECTION2 __attribute__ ((section ("code1"))) #endif 3) Added a #include "Sections.h" line to the source file of my application (there is only one). 4) Changed the prototypes of all functions that I want to put in the second code segment from RetValueType functionName (blah-blah); to RetValueType functionName (blah-blah) SECTION2; Unfortunately, I still cannot compile the project. :-( I get the error /usr/m68k-palmos/bin/ld: warning: no memory region specified for section `code1' FileName.c:LineNum: undefined reference to `__text__code1' where "FileName.c" is the source of my application and "LineNum" is the number of the line on which I call the main function that I want to put in a separate segment. Any hints what I am doing wrong? I am assuming that if I don't add a "SECTION2" to the prototype of a function, it will go into code 1. Do I have to create an __attribute__ for code 1 too - and add "SECTION1" to the prototypes of all functions that have to go into the code 1 resource? Do I have to add "SECTION2" also to the implementation of the functions - not just to their prototypes? At a guess, the problem occurs because I am using a managed makefile project and originally it was created as a single-segment project. For instance, its automatically generated makefile does not contain MULTIPLE_CODE_SECTIONS = TRUE Any ideas how to tell a managed makefile project that it should be a multi-segment project? What project properties to modify?
