16 bit operations in SHARC

Started by Ganesan Ramachandran April 26, 2000
Hi,
     I need to simulate 16 bit fixed point operations in SHARC 21061. The VDSP4.0 C cross compiler doesn't differentiate between short, int and long keywords. the numeric format of SHARC specifies 16 bit floating point operations only. is there any shortcut/method to simulate 16 bit fixed point operations in SHARC 21061? (like setting up some flags or constraining to some specific registers etc.)
thanks in advance.
regards,
