The LOCATION statement (with its somewhat counter-
|
|
intuitive syntax) is used to obtain the address
|
|
of a variable. A variable may be placed at a
|
|
particular memory address by declaring it as BASED and
|
|
then positioning it at run-time using the BASE..AT
|
|
statement. Most often this is done to access the values
|
|
stored in operating system variables and structures,
|
|
though it has other uses as well.
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
var i, address_of_i = integer
|
|
based k = integer
|
|
|
|
location var address_of_i = i
|
|
print "The variable i is stored at "; hex$(address_of_i)
|
|
base k at address_of_i
|
|
i = 12345
|
|
print "i ="; i
|
|
print "k ="; k rem - same as i
|
|
|
|
end
