When I evaluated an expression using the function specified in an external file, the expression was evaluated by a type other than the type which the function specifies. Why does this happen? A. Probably the problem is that the function specified in the external file is declared without "extern".
Renesas Technology, Tools FAQs Last Updated: August 25, 2000 Document Number: 01051243_e Q. Why doesn't the compiler generate an error when I reference an external function that has not been declared as "extern"? A. When there is no extern declaration (prototype declaration) for the function, the function is assumed to be an int type function, as per the ANSI specifications. Therefore, the function is referenced externally as 'in type', and no error is generated.

Renesas Technology, Tools FAQs Last Updated: July 22, 2003 Document Number: 03072211_e Q. How are the near/far attributes discriminated? A. If near/far are not specified, NC79 handles functions as belonging to far and variables as belonging to near. Although variables normally are handled as near, the default attribute can be changed by specifying a command option. ● -ffar_ROM(-fFROM) The default attribute of ROM data is changed to far.
Renesas Technology, Tools FAQs Last Updated: July 22, 2003 Document Number: 03072210_e Q. When an optimize option is added, code is not generated for some lines. Is this all right? A. When an optimize option is specified, the compiler does not generate code which it assumes is syntactically meaningless. If you want to suppress optimization, specify the volatile qualifier to disable optimization.
Renesas Technology, Tools FAQs Last Updated: July 22, 2003 Document Number: 03072209_e Q. Is the prototype declaration of a function necessary? A. By declaring the prototype of a function, you can suppress the function's argument type expansion or assign its arguments to a register. This helps to achieve efficient funtion call.
