Worst Case Call Stack

After loading the program, fill the memory allocated for the callstack with a known pattern and then run the MSP.  Once you halt, use the memory window to see where the pattern begins, and thus how much of the stack was used by the running program.  I believe the memory window in CCE 3 had a "fill memory" button on it somewhere.

Thanks Darian,

That will help me tell what my worst case is in terms of the amount of memory required, is there a way to identify the worst case call stack in terms of the functions that are called to make up that memory requirement i.e. funcA() calls funcB() call funcC()

Ben,

Not that I'm aware of, although someone from the compiler group may know of something I don't.  However, my gut feeling is that it wouldn't be possible to accurately calculate unless the code was trivial.
