[Sdcc-user] Absolute addressing

[Mario <mar...@gm...>]

I have been working for a while on porting my works for CC5X compiler
to SDCC. But I have found a number of problems that I just cannot
manage to resolve and I think the manual lacks a lot of clear
information on how to do some things.

In this one I want to ask about the Absolute Addressing feature
mentioned in the manual, section 3.6.
I don’t know what I could be doing wrong, I have copied the examples
textually from the manual and no absolute addressing seems to ever
happen in my code. Checked the manual many times and don’t get any
more information about this.

Is this a currently working feature? can someone provide me some piece
of code where absolute addressing actually works?
I am coding for PIC microcontrollers, specifically the 16F877A.
Greetings.
