I*A*R for AVR Problem...
Hi all.
Am currently using I*A*R C compiler for AVR AT90S8515 and have a problem.
When I call one of my routines with for example the line:
lcd_print("This is a test message");
I am finding that the compiler is using up 1 byte of RAM for every character in the message. In my program I am displaying many messages using the above format, and am therefore finding that I have no RAM left, and the compiler is therefore saying so too !
How can I stop the compiler from putting anything in quotes in RAM too, and just keep it in the Flash ??? I need my RAM back !!!
Have tried messing about with the project options but cant seem to cure the problem by the way.
Hope you can help.
Thanks.
Ron.
