How do I use malloc in HCS(08) CW?

[PhilG]

Hi,
I have set up a new project in CW for HCS(08). When I use malloc(60) it appears to want allocate all the RAM to the project. How do I manage the heap allocation in the linker etc. This does not appear to be set up in the project wizard?
Regards

Hello

The heap size is per default 2000 bytes.

If you want to use a smaller heap:

 - Open project hc08_lib.mcp from {Install}\lib\hc08c directory

 - Edit file libdefs.h (from {Install}lib\hc08c\include directory

 - Change the LIBDEF_HEAPSIZE to something smaller

 - save the changes

  - Rebuild the libraries (or at least the one you need.

This should do it .
