ldintb from C

Hi there,

I am working on a bootloader for the AA device, and I would like to switch vector tables in my main app.

In sect30.inc, I have the following sequence:

...

        .section        itable_NE,ROMDATA
.glb    APP_VECTOR
APP_VECTOR      .equ    04020H
        .org            APP_VECTOR;   this area stores the second interrupt table
    .lword    dummy_int        ; vector 0
    .lword    dummy_int        ; vector 1

...

From my main app, I am changing vector tables using the following command:

asm("    ldintb    #4020h");

Personally, I would prefer to switch tables using the const APP_VECTOR, however, whenever I try to implement something like:

asm("     ldintb   #$$", APP_VECTOR);

the compiler will complain either of the fact that I haven't marked APP_VECTOR as extern, or that it isn't a constant (along with another 250 errors from that statement).

What is the proper syntax for setting up the ldintb instruction from C?

Thanks.
