« on: April 08, 2005, 04:59:26 PM »
hi there,

error #3053: [asm] Offset too big (> 256). Try to rearrange the code, or make it smaller.
error #3053: [asm] Offset too big (> 4096). Try to rearrange the code, or make it smaller.

that's what I get trying to compile my project ... (pretty big c file, about 55k)

The never ending story continues...

Attached is a new version of the compiler that *seems* to fix the problem. I can compile, but get a bunch of linker errors. I let you sort them out... ;-)

Your previously reported struct assignment bug should also be fixed in this version.

So, should we all be updating to this version?

Not always the exact same pattern. Usually when accessing function arguments or local variables.

The number of input arguments to a function, the number of arguments to any of the sub-functions that is called from a function, the total size of local variables, the use of the inline assembler, the use of a variable number of arguments etc. all (to some degree) affect what type of instructions are generated to access a local variables. This is much more complicated for ARM processors (Pocket PC) than for X86 processors (desktop Windows).

Not unless you program for Pocket PC...

By now, you have probably found most of the 'bad spots'... ;-)

I guess trying to build an average size program using different os sources can help finding the little quirks !

great thx for your hard work !
