Actually, I _strongly_ recommend against using absolute mode unless you absolutely ;-) need to. Even for very small projects relocatable mode is little more trouble, and it is worth getting used to. I have run into a couple of projects where the finer control over allocation, etc. that you get with absolute mode made a difference. Although, in retrospect, even those projects could probably have been made to work in relocatable mode. -- Bob Ammerman RAm Systems=20 -----Original Message----- From: piclist-bounces@mit.edu [mailto:piclist-bounces@mit.edu] On Behalf Of IVP Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2013 8:22 PM To: Microcontroller discussion list - Public.

I just looked at a project of mine and see cblock 0x20 Not something I usually worry about or give much thought to after it's set. It'll be either 20 or 00, depending on the family, eg 16 or 18 Joe -- http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/chang= e your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
