EEPROM initialization

[Don_Kirby]

In the change log for compiler version 2.3.13, I find:

- Added code to append user EEPROM data to the download file.

Can you explain this further? I've been tracking down a problem where my EEPROM data is being re-initialized after every program download, and I'm curious if this is the cause.

The objective was to provide for initialized EEPROM data defined in C and assembly language code to be downloaded. Unfortunately, the means for doing so wasn't implemented correctly and the result is the problem that you have observed. The only recourse is to drop back to the earlier compiler version.

Thanks Don, I can live with the issue as long as I know why it is occurring.

As an aside, I'm amazed at how quickly you can track down and resolve these issues. I have no doubt that by the time the native mode compiler (and devices) are officially released, they will be rock solid. Kudos.

Well, as you probably know, a clear and concise description of the problem contributes significantly to its resolution.
