4.3 Linker Script File

Any program compiled with the MPLAB C17 C compiler requires the use of a

linker script file that documents the areas of memory that the linker is free to

use. Programs targeted to run out of external FLASH program memory

require a special linker script file that assumes that program memor y starts at

address 4000h. All of the source code written for the PICDEM 17

demonstration board must be compiled using the large memory model since it

will reside at memory addresses larger than 4000h and will be called from a

memory address somewhere in the first two pages of memory.
