how to define section for a variable

veera sekharappa

When we define a uninitialized global array variable in a C file, after compilation on CCS, default it will be moved to .far section.

But i want to move this variable into .fardata section.

Can anybody please suggest how to do it?

Explicitly initialize it like this ...

far int array[100] = { 0 };

Thanks and regards,

Please see the section titled Specifying Where to Allocate Sections in Memory in the C6000 compiler manual.

Thanks and regards,
