1.4.1 Limits of Compiler

Table 1.1 shows the translation limits of the compiler.

Source programs must be created to fall within these translation limits.

Notes 1.

For details, refer to section 8.3.2 Initial Setting.

Notes 2.

Since the assembler's limit of number of characters in one line is applied to the length of a section name when generating an object, the length that can be specified in #pragma section or the section option is shorter than this limit.
