Re: Accessing the PC

Hi,

There is no architectural instruction to read the PC.
But here the trick code:

     bl  here
here:
     mflr Rx
     ...

there:
     ...

Rx will contain absolute address of the lable "here"

if you'll need  the absolute address of lable "there"
you can calculate this by following code:

     addi Ry, Rx, there - here

Ry will contain absolute address of "there"

Of course, "there" and "here" should be defined in one
code section and be less than 32KB apart.



Regards
  Alex.
