#95055 - Const Array Store at a Specific Address
Hey Everyone,
I spend a little time today trying to figure out how to define a const array and then force the compiler to store that array at a specific address in code space.
I want to do this so a boot-loader and a application can both use a the same serial number store in code space ie flash.


unsigned char const serial_num[] = {'1', '7', '7', '6'};

but, I want to make sure that the
'1' is in at 0xFFF0 in code space,
'7' is in at 0xFFF1 in code space,
'7' is in at 0xFFF2 in code space,
'6' is in at 0xFFF3 in code space,
