Hello 
 
 
I have a serios problem using float variables in 
an application with the H8/300H.
 
(1) If I define a global float variable var1 and 
initialize it, the float variable var1is correctly defined and correctly 
initialized.
 
(2) But if I define a global float variable var2 
without initializing it, and assign a constant value later to it (for example 
1,5) the variable var2 has not got the right value.
 
 
What I 
dedected:
 
In (1) the constant value is fetch from the segment 
data.
 
In (2) the constant value is fetch from the segment rodata. (I 
have not defined the segment rodata in my linkfile and dont know whats the use 
of it!).  The segment rodata starts at 0x00268008 as you can see in the 
file main.x. 
But the command to assign the constant to var2 
is :
 
    mov.l @.LC0:16,er2   
(as you can see in the Listfile xx.lst)
 
and thats wrong because with this command you can reach only 
the lower 16 bits of the right address.
 
The right command should be 

    mov.l 
@.LC0:24,er2
 
So its possible to reach the address 0x00268008.
 
Maybe I have used wrong compiler or linker switches, but I 
have studdied the manuel for a long time and cant find any solution. Now I have 
really reached a point where I need a little help.
 
In the attachment you can find:
C Source         
filemain.c
Makefile          
makefile
Linkfile            
mondial.lnk
Objektfile         
main.x
Listfile             
xx.lst
 
    
 I have used the following versions of compiler and 
linker: 
 
GNU C version 2.7-97r1a 
(h8300-hms)
GNU ld version 2.7-97r1a (with BFD 
2.7-97r1a)
 
 
Please answer back to development.mondial@aon.at
 
 
greetings
