#153050 - External EEPROM declarations
I'm working on an old project to add new features that required an increase of the external EEPROM from 256 to 512 bytes. Started to change the unusual variable addressing scheme done by my old boss and the compiler barfed, giving a range error. I might ask about that in another thread.

In the mean time, it got me to thinking about ways to do this better. How do you guys & girls declare variables for use with external, serial EEPROMs? Do any of the compilers have special memory types, macros, etc, for accomplishing this? It should be easy, but I'm wondering how people have done it without overlapping existing data or code space.

      Accessor functions?            01/01/70 00:00      
         Accessor function just means get_eeprom(ads)            01/01/70 00:00
