Posted on May 17, 2011 at 14:12Whats wrong with IAR specific pragma commands?
Like any language extensions they aren't very portable, casts work practically everywhere. The IAR extensions aren't going to work on RealView, Keil, GHS, Rowley, Atollic, GCC, etc.
The same reason I'd avoid nameless unions/structures, and incrementing void * pointers. The code will be difficult to work with, and maintain, 5,10,15 or 20 years from now.
