The compiler is already retarget to generate correct code for the 16 bit architecture. So the offsets from the stack pointer in the assembly code, the sizes of the symbol are all correct in terms of the new architectures address size. Now I was wondering from a debug information standpoint, is there any extra education that the compiler needs ? thanks dz
