If you like to stay with gcc, you should look out for peal. It will
allow you to spread your ARM-code over several 64k-resources (which
isn't complicated at all :-). But also will give you global vars in your
pnolet.
Aha! Peal looks very useful, I think I'll give it a try.
1: no, not really
2: no, sectioning isn't necessary. pnolet can be very large and jumps
are 32-bit. You just would spilt the large ARM binary into small chunks
and put them together on the device. Maybe peal can do it even smarter
with calls between the different resource ptrs.
3: no globals for example, if you don't use peal.
Thanks, I guess things aren't as quite scary as I thought they would be.
Peal even generates an .ro with all the split armc resources in it,
and provides a function to load it all up, so I don't even have to Think
about multiple code resources.
