| Microchip IDE Compile Result Question |

Greetings all!
I have written a test program to try to understand this question better. I just cant seem to figure out what the compiler is telling me.
| Code: | #include <16F74.h>
#device *=16
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
int8 Test1[96];
int8 Test2[90];
void main()
{
while(true);
} |
With the result...
Memory usage: ROM=0% RAM=99% - 99%
I know I am using all of the available memory. Why does the compiler have a '-99%'? As a result my 'Memory Usage Gauge' shows only 1 byte used.
My thanks in advance for your assistance!
Cheers!
JMc

I never look at the stats in the Output Window. Look at the .LST file
instead. The .LST file has the stats right at the top of the file and
they're in a better format. Example:
| Code: |
Filename: pcm_test.lst
ROM used: 14 words (0%)
Largest free fragment is 2048
RAM used: 191 (99%) at main() level
191 (99%) worst case
Stack: 0 locations

Thanks for the suggestion. That seems to work. too bad the gauge doesn't... I am sure that it has been reported as a bug.
Many Thanks!
