Description These directives place one or more values into the current section.
-
The .byte directive places 8-bit values into consecutive words in the cur-
rent section. The
value must be an expression that evaluates to a number
within –128 and 127. The upper 24 bits are 0.
-
The .int directive places 16-bit values into consecutive words in the cur-
rent section. The
value must be an expression that evaluates to a number
within the range of –32768 and 32767. The upper 16 bits are always 0.
-
The .long and .word directives place 32-bit values into consecutive words
in the current section. The
value is an expression that the assembler eval-
uates and treats as a 32-bit signed number.
A value must be absolute. You can use as many values as fit on a single line
(80 characters). If you use a label, it points to the first word that is initialized.
Example 1 Here is an example of these directives.
.word ’A’, ’B’, ’C’, 1, 0x1234, 0320C31h
.int 111b, 1<<4
.long 0x87654321, 1<<31
.byte 0x20, ’A’, ’B’, ’C’
.hword 32765,l –32768, –2, 2
