Hi dears,
I'm trying to code a table to access strings. My target is produce a
routine to print menus in dual language.
*I wrote:*
const char *menu_str[][] = {
{ "text1 lang1", "text1 lang2" },
{ "text2 lang1", "text2 lang2" },
{ "textN lang1", "textN lang2" },
{ 0,0 }
};
*results:*
idata
_menu_str db LOW(__str_0), HIGH(__str_0), UPPER(__str_0), LOW(__str_1),
HIGH(__str_1), UPPER(__str_1), LOW(__str_2), HIGH(__str_2), UPPER(__str_2),
LOW(__str_3), HIGH(__str_3), UPPER(__str_3)
db LOW(__str_4), HIGH(__str_4), UPPER(__str_4), LOW(__str_5),
HIGH(__str_5), UPPER(__str_5), 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00

__str_5:

I'd like to know if is there any way to produce not a idata, but a CODE
sector to _menu_str constant, once all strings are constants and the table
to access it is a constant too, and I don't need to expend RAM memory to
this.
I did some alternate code to produce what I want:
const char menu_000 [] = "text1 lang1";
const char menu_001 [] = "text1 lang2";
const char menu_010 [] = "text2 lang1";
const char menu_011 [] = "text2 lang2";
const char menu_020 [] = "textN lang1";
const char menu_021 [] = "textN lang2";
void menu_str(void) __naked {
__asm
DW _menu_000, _menu_001
DW _menu_010, _menu_011
DW _menu_020, _menu_021
DW 0, 0
__endasm;
}
so, it results exactly I want:
S_config__menu_str code
_menu_str:
DW _menu_000, _menu_001
DW _menu_010, _menu_011
DW _menu_020, _menu_021
DW _menu_090, _menu_091
DW 0, 0

__menu_000:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x31, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x31, 0x00
; ; Starting pCode block for Ival
__menu_001:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x31, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x32, 0x00
; ; Starting pCode block for Ival
__menu_010:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x32, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x31, 0x00
; ; Starting pCode block for Ival
__menu_011:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x32, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x32, 0x00
; ; Starting pCode block for Ival
__menu_020:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x4e, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x31, 0x00
; ; Starting pCode block for Ival
__menu_021:
DB 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x4e, 0x20, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x6e, 0x67, 0x32, 0x00
Then, at de header file "I Lied" about the symbols, declaring:
extern const unsigned int menus_strs[5][2];
And IT WORKS... ok, but I'd like to this only in C language to future
compatibility.
Regards,
Antonio
