Segmentation is handled differently depending on whether you are using Code
Warrior or PODS. I will assume PODS.
I strongly recommend the book Professional Palm OS Programming by Foster
and Bachmann. It contained this info and has lots more. I'm a relative
newbie as well.
1. Create a file and included it in your project, called sections.def. That
file should contain 2 lines-
application {"YourAppName" BIGAPP}
multiple code {"segment1" "segment2"}
2. In the PODS makefile, include the statement MULTIPLE_CODE_SECTIONS = TRUE
3. Create a header file Sections.h containing
#ifndef _SECTIONS_H
#define _SECTIONS_H
#define CODESEGMENT1 __attribute__ ((section ("segment1")))
#define CODESEGMENT2 __attribute__ ((section ("segment2")))
#endif
4. For each function you want in the second segment, change the definition
of the function adding the code segment to the definition like this:
void yourfunction(void) CODESEGMENT2;
If you don't declare a code segment, it will go into the first segment.
You can declare more segments, in the same manner as above.
