SDCC Manual 2.6 Reading the Documentation Currently reading the document in pdf format is recommended, as for unknown reason the hyperlinks are working there whereas in the html version they are not2.1. You'll find the pdf version at http://sdcc.sf.net/doc/sdccman.pdf. A html version should be online at http://sdcc.sf.net/doc/sdccman.html/index.html. This documentation is in some aspects different from a commercial documentation: It tries to document SDCC for several processor architectures in one document (commercially these probably would be separate documents/products). This document currently matches SDCC for mcs51 and DS390 best and does give too few information about f.e. Z80, PIC14, PIC16 and HC08. There are many references pointing away from this documentation. Don't let this distract you. If there f.e. was a reference like http://www.opencores.org together with a statement ''some processors which are targetted by SDCC can be implemented in a field programmable gate array'' or http://sf.net/projects/fpgac ''have you ever heard of an open source compiler that compiles a subset of C for an FPGA?'' we expect you to have a quick look there and come back. If you read this you are on the right track. Some sections attribute more space to problems, restrictions and warnings than to the solution. The installation section and the section about the debugger is intimidating. There are still lots of typos and there are more different writing styles than pictures.
