PRB: #pragma code_seg() Affects Compiler-Generated Functions

   #pragma code_seg()
				

MORE INFORMATION

The following sample can be used to demonstrate this behavior. Compile the file with /DMY_SECTION, and the compiler-generated code is placed in the MY_SECTION section. To place the compiler-generated functions in the default code section, compile without MY_SECTION defined.

You can determine into which section the code is placed by looking at the .COD listing file, generated by using the /FAsc compiler option, or the linker mapfile, generated by using the /MAP:filename link option.

Sample Code to Demonstrate Behavior

   /* Compile options needed: /Fc /DMY_SECTION
   */ 
   class base
   {
       int i;
   };

   class Simple: virtual base    // Classes with virtual base classes are
   {                             // non-trivial, and require constructors
   };

   #pragma code_seg("MY_SECTION")

   void main()
   {
       Simple Simple_Class;
   }

   #ifndef MY_SECTION           // Define MY_SECTION to cause compiler
   #pragma code_seg()           // generated code to be placed in the
   #endif                       // MY_SECTION section.
