Hi All,

Is there a way to use values from the linker.cmd file in a C program?

Such as the .xStack ORIGIN and LENGTH values.

Thanks,
Pete

Hi William,

Thanks for the reply.

I was hoping there was a way to directly use the values entered in the MEMORY section.  I do something similar to what you are doing with constants but sometimes I forget to change both values.  Maybe I just need a better "memory".

Thanks,
Pete

There might be better ways, but here is an example ...

.xstack  (RW)  : ORIGIN = 0x0040, LENGTH = 0x0300  # stack

.custom (R)   : ORIGIN = 0x2000, LENGTH = 0x0010  # custom stuff from this file

              # Make the custom variables global

   Fstack_origin = ADDR(.information) + 0;
   Fstack_length = ADDR(.information) + 1;
...
}
