LPCXpresso with LPC1758

I have this sample code (0x00078000 + 0x00007F00 = 0x0007FF00):

uint32_t *pnt, *a;
pnt = (uint32_t *)SECTOR_29_START;
a = (uint32_t *) (pnt + 0x00007F00);

At the end of this two line in debug the variable have this inccorect value
uint32_t * "pnt" = 0x00078000
uint32_t * "a" = 0x00097c00

What do the calculation? ?

Thanks

The code you have written is incrementing pnt by (0x7f00 * sizeof(*pnt)), that is 4*0x7f00 = 0x1fc00. This is standard C pointer arithmetic.
