Hello!

The avr-gcc just released and there are quite many new features!

http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.7/changes.html

When will be an avr-gcc update available for AS6 ?

Or Sprinter SB who's done a load of the work and knows whether it's ready to go to press or not.

Either yesterday or today he was already talking about faults in 4.7.1 which are now fixed in 4.7.2

Yes, of course.

Just a small performance regression that might lead to some % of flash waste.

You might still be better off than with 4.6 or older compiler versions though.

the good thing is that avr gcc 4.7.1+ has the new _flash feature so no need of pgm header and special functions as i understand.

well i hope at least to see it in AS 6.1 as also the data breakpoints at last implemented. Iar is too expensive and ugly for that money.

There is still need of special, non-standard functions if you locate data in flash. For example, you need
Code:
printf_P (const __flash char*, ...);
for format string in flash.
