array out of bounds

Hi all,

i am trying to fix an issue and working with S12x microcontroller with codewarrior IDE where the functionality of the system works in a random manner. I found the following mistake in the code

unsigned char array1[32];

unsigned char array2[23];

for(i=0;i<=32;i++)

array1[i] =0;

now array1[32] is initialized with 0 which is not available. My question is since array2 is declared just below array1 will that be overwritten. From the map file can i know the address of the array1 and see how it is affecting. Can someone explain how the system in these situations.

Thanks and regards,

Satya

By default, the compiler will generate a warning to remind user for this overwritten. If user ignore it, the application will run out of expect. Usually, it will overwritten the data next to array1[] (for your case, it should be array2). User should avoid such overwritten in his coding.
