My program write data to fixed memory positions..
I need point each variable to a point, whats the correct way to calc the next addres

Another question, how to show the address of variable in printf ?

Ummmm.... in modern systems you generally DO NOT want to write to fixed addresses... ever.
Fixed addresses are not fixed... memory is allocated and deallocated to programs dynamically and has to be correctly reserved. Memory that is not correctly reserved (with malloc(), calloc() or realloc() ) is very likely to be overwritten at any moment and you have no control over that.

Well... unless you're writing for a 6502 running ROM Basic that is... (circa 1974)


It looks like you are trying to build a data base in memory... you would do that with malloc() and access it with pointers. A linked list is probably your best bet... Linked Lists

Code:

#define SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL	0xE0084000lu		// Endereço Inicial da SRAM

Care to elaborate what one would get from here??
Is it a port or ..?
You can use printf %p format specifier.
Correct (standard) way is
printf(" pointer pointing %p\n", (void*)p );

You should take note that sizeof(struct) >= sizeof(field1) + sizeof(field2)+...
Since there may be padding between struct fields.

this address refer to SRAM in a LPC2468 processor (ARM 7).

There's no magic way to have it all just fit in there. I would probably do something like:

Code:

CONFIG_REDE = (SYSCONFIG_REDE *) SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL;
CONFIG_REDE_SIZE = sizeof(SYSCONFIG_REDE);

CONFIG_SERIAL = (SYSCONFIG_SERIAL *) (CONFIG_REDE + CONFIG_REDE_SIZE);
CONFIG_SERIAL_SIZE = sizeof(SYSCONFIG_SERIAL);
...

Thanks for all

Final Code:

Code:

CONFIG_REDE = (SYSCONFIG_REDE *) SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL;

CONFIG_SERIAL = (SYSCONFIG_SERIAL *) (SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL + sizeof(CONFIG_REDE));

CONFIG_DIVERSOS = (SYSCONFIG_DIVERSOS *) (SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL + sizeof(CONFIG_REDE) + sizeof(CONFIG_SERIAL));

CONFIG_PESAGEM = (SYSCONFIG_PESAGEM *) (SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL + + sizeof(CONFIG_REDE) + sizeof(CONFIG_SERIAL) + sizeof(CONFIG_DIVERSOS));

Your sizeof is incorrect. CONFIG_REDE, CONFIG_SERIAL, et al. are pointers. Their sizes are all 4 on your 32-bit ARM proc. I really don't recommend basing all of the CONFIG addresses off of SRAM_ENDERECO_INICIAL. Apart from the long, ugly list of sizeof's you will end up with, you will have problems if you want to insert a new CONFIG_ somewhere in the middle of your SRAM. Make the next one be based off of the previous CONFIG_ block only. You don't have to use the CONFIG_XXX_SIZE variables like I did, but at least do:

Code:

CONFIG_REDE = (SYSCONFIG_REDE *) CONFIG_ENDERCO_INICIAL;
CONFIG_SERIAL = (SYSCONFIG_SERIAL *) (CONFIG_REDE + sizeof(SYSCONFIG_REDE));
CONFIG_DIVERSOS = (SYSCONFIG_DIVERSOS *) (CONFIG_SERIAL + sizeof(SYSCONFIG_SERIAL));
CONFIG_PESAGEM = (SYSCONFIG_PESAGEM *) (CONFIG_DIVERSOS + sizeof(SYSCONFIG_DIVERSOS));
