Re: [avr-gcc-list] question on .bss and global variables

[Neil Johnson]

Stefan,

1) which device are you using?

2) pointers are 2-bytes, so your struct is 4 bytes in size.  32 instances
will require 128 bytes of storage.

EEPROM is a completely different memory space, with different access
methods, so you can't just spill variables into it.  If you're running out
of memory, then either rethink your application or change to a device with
more SRAM.

My guess is you are statically allocating more RAM than your target device
has, which is why the linker is complaining, since after it located the
data it then found there was no RAM there to hold it!

Hope this helps,
Neil
