I tried to define a type (only define, without allocate any variable):
typedef struct dummy
{
uint8_t data[9000];
} dummy_t;
typedef struct big_dummy
{
dummy_t bigdata[4];
dummy_t singledata;
} big_dummy_t;
I never allocate any big_dummy_t object. I use big_dummy_t only as
placeholder (I use offsetof() macro), only to calculate offsets of
object placed into a big extern serial flash memory.
I get the error from gcc:
error: size of array 'bigdata' is too large
it is 36000 bytes, bigger than 32KB.
odd, i tested that with the macintosh osx 10.4.11 using a quad core g5
machine and gcc version 4.0 and apple's xcode frontend and it compiled
and linked with 0 errors.
