RM48L952: Placing structures in SDRAM

Hello,

I am running Code Composer Studio 6.01.  We have external SDRAM, and I want to know how to place structures into that segment of memory.  How can I do that?  I assume sys_link.cmd (attached) needs to be modified.

Once the linker is configured for external sdram, how do I place structures (i.e. array) in it?

Thanks.
