readonly_strings
Description:
Controls how to store string literals.
Compatibility:
This pragma is compatible with the following platform targets:
Prototype:
#pragma readonly_strings on | off | reset
Remarks:
This pragma corresponds to the Make Strings ReadOnly option in the PPC Processor, MIPS, and V800 Processor panels. To check whether this option is on, using #if __option (readonly_strings), see "Checking Options."
PowerPC, NEC V800, and MIPS
This option determines where to store string constants. If this option is off, the compiler stores string constants in the data section. If this option is on, the compiler stores string constants in the code section.
NOTE
Variables that are not initialized to the address of another object at run time are always placed in the code section (class RO). This includes C/C++ variables declared with the const storage-class modifier.
Embedded 68K
When off, depending on the size, strings are placed into initialized data sections .data or .sdata.
