How to access STM8 cpu registers

MykolaLevun · ‎2023-11-28

Hello

How can I access STM8S CPU registers (Cosmic compiler)? When I write this "A = 0xff" (A is a processor register accumulator), then compiler writes this "#error cpstm8 main.c:17(3) A undefined". How to fix it?

Hello,

You need to access internal CPU registers with assembly language. You can insert asm code inside C code.

See https://www.cosmicsoftware.com/pdf/cxstm8_pd.pdf / page 2.
