QUESTION

How do I locate functions in a code banking program at different addresses in a code bank?

ANSWER

The BANKx directive locates associated program modules or segments in the specified bank x.

• BANKx {xxx.obj} includes all of xxx.obj in bank X. Note that this form uses the curly braces.
• BANKX(symbol_name(yyyyH)) locates a symbolic name (usually these begin with ?PR?) at a specific address in bank X. Note that this form of BANKx uses the parentheses.

• Refer to BANKx in the BL51 User's Guide.
• Refer to the BANK_EX1 code banking example in the \KEIL\C51\BANK_EX1\ folder.
