_ram_protect_a and _ram_protect_a_length

[Coccoliso]

Hello,
I have to define an area of RAM before it can be used via DMA and I saw that there are _ram_protect_a_length and _ram_protect_a_length but then I should use this part of memory accessed via byte array .. the compiler does not accept Absolute after Byte

Code: Select all

#define _ram_protect_a= &H100
#define _ram_protect_a_length = &H1ff

dim b(100) as byte absolute _ram_protect_a                             // Absolute error "Symbol not expected"
dim c(100) as byte absolute (_ram_protect_a + 100)

I've just tried the example above and it builds fine for me. Are you using Firewing 8, 16 or 32? Is there any more code?

David you're right,
I have found the error .. a comma after a constant in a previous line .. sorry
