Gcc supports various attributes to assign linker sections (such as __attribute__((section, ".mysection")), take a look in the manuals), which is in general a more flexible mechanism than #pragmas. Unfortunately, the section attribute can be applied only to variable/function definitions, not to type definition. Hence, it is not possible to define a "default section" for all (static) variable instances of a particular type, even though such feature would be *very* useful. If you have full control over the source code you may use a pre-processor macro as workaround, which instantiates Matrix-items with the proper attributes. Daniel
