#151336 - Hmmm, indeed
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Andy said:
So how do you get a something to be read-only, but not in CODE space?

That's a good question, for which my answer after looking at the manual is "I'm not sure." It appears that it depends not only on the memory model being used, but also on whether the variable is declared within a function or not.

Another valid answer is "nobody cares", given that the compiler in question appeared shortly after the discovery of fire, when computers were still being fabricated from sticks and mud by creatures with narrowly-spaced eyes and low, sloping foreheads.

                              make sure the developer doesn't do something stupi            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Const to Code EPROM or FLASH,,,            01/01/70 00:00      
                           const and volatile - for optimization            01/01/70 00:00      
                  consts in other than CODE space            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Use the extended keywords            01/01/70 00:00      
                        'const' and 'volatile'            01/01/70 00:00      
   Unreadable code!            01/01/70 00:00      
      It really was all Keils fault....;)            01/01/70 00:00

         Wow......LOL            01/01/70 00:00      
            Not a C vs ASM thing            01/01/70 00:00      
               From your perspective, it may make sense            01/01/70 00:00      
      I went this direction....code padding removal?            01/01/70 00:00      
         For but one byte added to the array...            01/01/70 00:00      
         With proper ordering in source file...            01/01/70 00:00      
         Putting it all together            01/01/70 00:00      
            Spectacular Russ.....            01/01/70 00:00      
   THINK            01/01/70 00:00      
      that is surely needed            01/01/70 00:00      
      A bit easier to read?            01/01/70 00:00      
         easy to read???            01/01/70 00:00      
      typedef vs #define            01/01/70 00:00

   Best way to consolidate....out of memory            01/01/70 00:00      
   Why specify CODE for functions?            01/01/70 00:00
