question about IAR AVR(Define the placment of codes)

[Mesfet]

Hello,
I am looking for to find a way to define the placement of codes, for instance , I want to write bootloader program and as you well know , these codes have to be placed in specific address  , Also, I want to know how can call this function which will be placed in specific address , is there any differences between calling the normal functions and this kind of functions?

Thanks in Advance

'#pragma location=foo' or '@' places the functions, whose decleration follows the pragma in segment 'foo'. This way you can set it in a specific segment & you can control segment's address. For this you have to use additional commands to linker in either XCL file or in dialogs of IDE.

It is better for you to read carefully Compiler Ref Manual, specifically topics- 'Controlling Data & Function Placement' and 'User Defined Segments'.

Once done, turn ON all warnings & errors, especially segment overlap warnings and build it. No errors/warnings should be generated. To be sure check the map file & see nothing inCODE overlaps.

Thanks all,
Dear sam_des , I've red IAR reference , but I think it is sometimes confusing , more than 5 large PDF and another integrated help , and I think I couldn't be success without your help, because you point to exact information that I need, thank you so much.
Besides , I downloaded MYXATA's program , thanks MYXATA so much  , you are really professional program, and thanks for sharing.
Thanks pablo2048 , you are right , but as sam_des describes,  programmers have to edit Xlink configuration file manually to be able define the placement of codes.
