The DATA_SECTION pragma allocates space for the symbol in C, or the next symbol declared in C++, in a section named section name.
The DATA_SECTION pragma is useful if you have data objects that you want to link into an area separate from the .bss section.
Using the DATA_SECTION pragma has the same effect as using the GCC-style section variable attribute. See Section 5.17.3.
The syntax of the pragma in C is:
#pragma DATA_SECTION (symbol, "section name") |
The syntax of the pragma in C++ is:
#pragma DATA_SECTION ("section name") |
Example 8 through Example 10 demonstrate the use of the DATA_SECTION pragma.
