SDCC 3.4.0 not optimize STM8

[Pavlo Kharchenko]

SDCC 3.4.0 does not optimize the unused functions, variables and constants. As a result, the hex file size is 18,8kb, and the IAR generates a hex file size 2,5kb.

-------------- Build: Release in test (compiler: Small Device C Compiler)---------------

sdcc.exe -mstm8 --opt-code-size -I"C:\Program Files\SDCC\include" -c main.c -o obj\Release\main.rel
sdcc.exe -L"C:\Program Files\SDCC\lib" -o bin\Release\test.ihx -mstm8 -DSTM8S003 --opt-code-size -lstm8 --out-fmt-ihx obj\Release\main.rel
Output file is bin\Release\test.ihx with size 18.82 KB
Running project post-build steps
cmd /c "packihx <bin\release\test.ihx>bin\Release\test.hex"
packihx: read 253 lines, wrote 503: OK.</bin\release\test.ihx>

This main.c - used only function LCD_init ()

#define SYSCLK 1000000UL
#include <stm8 stm8l151k4.h=""></stm8>
#include <stm8 stm8_sdcc.h=""></stm8>
#include "STM8_KS0108_CFG.h"
#include "STM8_KS0108.h"
void main(void)
{
LCD_init();
while(1);
}

ASM file size is 115,217kb

Why don't work optimization with STM8 CPU?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I tried all possible COMMAND LINE OPTIONS and SDCC version with STM8 support .

You need not post redundant messsages on both support-requests and the discussion.

I have post a feature request ticket, since what you have encountered is a common problem to all of sdcc's ports.
