XGATE LDW mnemonic does not work for 16bit immediate constatnt

[Pitrunner]

I'm using CW 5.7 and a MC9S12XDP512 controller.
Flw. problem. If I want to load a 16bit wide constant in XGATE with the LDW instruction like LDW  R4,#$1234 (see example: datasheet HCS12X controller page 338) I got flw. error message:A22005: Number or type of opernads mismatch.  What I'm doing wrong?

The version number 5.7 refers to the ide, the editor, the current product version of the HC12 is 4.7,
so I'm basically don't know what you are using, its not 4.7 as this version ships with an IDE 5.9.

Anyway, the LDW is not a real XGATE instruction, it is a pseudo instruction which generates 2 actual instructions when assembled. The support for LDW is mentioned in the release noted of the 4.7 release as new feature, so I guess you are using an older version which does not support this pseudo instruction.
With your version, use the actual assembly instructions instead:

Code:

  LDL R4,#$34  ORH R4,#$12

BTW: I don't like those pseudo instruction, especially with assembly I like to see things explicitely.

Daniel,
thanks for your answer and sorry for the mismatch with the CW version. I' m using CW 4.5 build 6037.
The answer for the LDW instruction for a 16bit constant, I did it in the same way. But my real intention was to load a 16bit address from the memory, like flw.

Code:

LDW R1,#16bitaddress

Constructions like

Code:

LDL R1,#16bitaddressORH R1,#(16bitaddress >> 8)

does not work. Any hint for me?

Check the assembler manual, it contains how to encode all the fixups.
For HC12 V4.7, it is located:
C:\Program Files\Freescale\CodeWarrior for HCS12 V4.7\Help\PDF\Assembler_XGATE.pdf

See below how to load a 16 bit label or value into a register for the XGATE.

Daniel,
thanks for your help. The macro does it, what I want.
