Setting DAT values

Bean

In PASM if you have:

value1··· LONG 1024
value2··· LONG value1

It sets value2 to the ADDRESS of value1, not it's value. Is there any way to get the value ? Some kind of prefix or something ?

Use BASIC on the Propeller with the speed of assembly language.

I was caught by that once before too...
I don't think there is any way to do it...

I just use the CON section to make constant parameters for the DAT section...

The value of any label like "value1" or "value2" in PASM is always its address in the cog. As Rayman mentioned, you can explicitly define a label to have any value by using a CON section. You can't get the content of a memory location at compile/assembly time. The compiler/assembler doesn't keep that information around. It generates the data into the object file and that's that.
