How to get current heap pointer?

Hi David_Cai,

I've looked some more at this problem.

The symbol 'heap_end' is defined in nios2_60\bin\nios2-gnutools\src\newlib\libgloss\nios2\nosys_sbrk.

It's definition is 'static char *heap_end;'

A static symbol is only visible (for the toolchain) in the current file. If you generate an objdump listing of your executable you can see that heap_end is listed as a local symbol.

So, if you try to reference this symbol in another file, it&#39;s the same as it wasn&#39;t defined at all. => >>undefined reference to `heap_end&#39;<<

Hope this helps,

Wolfgang
