-far_rom | CS+ V5.00.00

-far_rom

This option sets the default near/far attribute of ROM data to far.

[Specification format]

-far_rom

-	Interpretation when omitted

The default near/far attribute of ROM data is determined by the -memory_model option setting.

[Detailed description]

-	This option changes the near/far attribute for ROM data, which is specified by the memory model, to far.

-	This option is not applied to the ROM data with the __near or __far keyword specified.

When this option is specified and a pointer points to const data, the near/far attribute of this pointer is far. However, when a pointer points to non-const data, its attribute is near. Therefore, though in violation of the ANSI/C90 standard, the pointer size depends on whether the pointer points to const data. This option should be used on this understanding.

// -far_rom is specified.

      char* ptr;    // The pointer size is 2 bytes. It points to the char with __near attribute.

const char* c_ptr;  // The pointer size is 4 bytes. It points to the const char with __far attribute.

-	When a standard library functionNote using a pointer to a const variable as a parameter is linked, it is replaced with a standard library function for a far pointer by "#if defined(__FAR_ROM__)" in the standard header.

[Example of use]

-	To change the near/far attribute for ROM data, which is specified by the memory model, to far, describe as:

>ccrl -far_rom -cpu=S2 -dev=dr5f100pj.dvf main.c
