Is there a pragma way of adding the --no_bad_aliases option to my code?

#pragma FUNCTION_OPTIONS("-mt")

gives me...

: error: Option "--no_bad_aliases" cannot be used in FUNCTION_OPTIONS pragma

Perhaps I don't understand the full scenario here, but wouldn't the "restrict" keyword be more appropriate here?

Using the restrict keyword is generally preferred, because it affects only that specific pointer, and not most pointers like --no_bad_aliases does.

But when development time is short, using --no_bad_aliases can be a quick and dirty solution

Thanks and regards,

William,

If you're looking to do this for a single file you could potentially use "file specific compiler options" of CCS to similar effect. That would appear to be the only way to implement this for a single file. If you're trying to do this for a single function then I recommend using the restrict keyword as part of the pointer definitions.
