Folks, I'm in a bit of a quandry. Traditionally I don't like "Claw Hands" meaning the kind you see on a Submersable Sub or better know as Pinchers or Grabers. My problem: I'm making a Mid-Sized Technic Fig Scale Robotic Mecha. (4ft.tall biped) I (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.robotics)

(...) According to config/h8300/h8300.h in the gcc sources, int is 32bit for the h8 cross compiler. I believe the reason mm_free_mem() returns an int is because the memory manager stores the size of each free block as size_t, which is defined in (...)

That is very interesting Jason. It is interesting that mm_free_mem() returns a 16bit value using a 32bit return code. Both int and long are 32bit value on most computers/compilers these days; short would be a 16bit value; and char would be an 8bit (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

While the declaration for mm_free_mem is int mm_free_mem(void) The fact is that the RCX has only 32K of memory available. 32K in hex is 0x8000... there's never a need for more than 4 digits in hex.

Albert Huang, Sorry for the confusion. "most significant" = upper 16 bits and "least significant" = lower 16 bits (the free memory is a 32 bit value). If you write the values out, you will get the 32 bit value (both values are hex) ... for example: (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
