#158433 - Location of Pointers in XDATA
Hi all I am using a pointer to point to some LCD phrases..

from a tip I found here (all credit to original authour) - I can't find the tip again.



unsigned char code *phrases[] = {
		"LINE 1",   //0
		"LINE 2",   //1
		"LINE 3"   //2
};





All goes swimmingly well, until I get a big long list of phrases that uses up all my DATA space, to hold the pointer.

Is there any way that I can change the location of the pointer to use XDATA space.

I am using SILABS C8051F047 and Raisonance C Compiler.

Thanks and Regards

Marshall Brown

                                    It didn't actually compile with CONST            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       const is expected to catch non-const assigns            01/01/70 00:00
