Which leads me to say something that I feel doesn't get said on here enough:
Hi, I have one more question about the linkscript.. or GCC, ld? I don't understand why this is happening. Maybe you can put some light on this. Is there...
I think it will help if you give up an array size. Currently the linker/compiler assumes that it is not 'const' because it doesn't know 'size to reserve in...

What do you mean it does not know the size. How come this works with empty arrays of type int? Besides compiler have access to struct definition. I just don't...
Looking at it again I found another problem: you say that you implemented those arrays in 'data.h'. There should only be a declaration (i.e.: extern const int...

Well all data is exported in data.h no cpp data files. So once again const int Array1[] = {}; const tObj Array2[] = {}; How come Array1 is in 0x8000000 and...
Maybe the keyword 'const' is the problem? Maybe when it's const it assumes it is a global variable, and globals are in RAM? Just guessing here :-) I use In the...
Hi, Jeff's linkscript works differently. SNSys' linkscript (which you are using) places the .data section in ROM (which is incorrect in my point of view......

Hi! Ah... that explains alot of why it works with my code :-) The data I use are in fact initialized globals, but I really don't want them to be in RAM at all,...

Hi, Well, I think you would have a problem when implementing this function, for instance: void function (void) { static u32 calls = 0; calls++; printf("I've...

Forgot to mention: if I do: const int array[] = { 1,2,3 }; I don't have to specify a size either and it will go into ROM. int array[] = { 1,2,3 }; Will put {...

With the latest GCC compiler and using Nintendo's libs global variables work, kind of. The vars do go in to memory but they are always initialised to 0...
if I put the following code in a .c / .cpp file: typedef struct { int a,b; } test; const test t[100] = {}; const int t2[100] = {}; Both arrays end up in ROM...

Did you try const test t[] = {}; const int t2[] = {}; You are asking why to have empty arrays. Well the engine is generic. It will pickup whatever you export...
