$SPACE | $S - Switch memory allocation to RAM or EEPROM

space-directive = ( $SPACE | $S ) RAM | EEPROM | DUAL ( CTRL | DATA ) .

Define where the next variables will be allocated, in RAM or in EEPROM.

RAM defines that variables are generated in RAM area after this point (default).

EEPROM defines that the variables are generated in EEPROM area after this point.

NEW! (V2.1):

DUAL CTRL defines that variables are generated in a RAM area declared as $DUAL CTRL.

DUAL DATA defines that variables are generated in a RAM area declared as $DUAL DATA.

• This directive is effective until another $SPACE directive or until the end of the current VAR section, where it is reset to RAM.
• If the current space is RAM, variables allocation may be overridden by the EEPROM keyword. See: EEPROM memory allocation.

Default is RAM.

{$SPACE EEPROM}
VAR
 EE_SAVED_INDEX: BYTE; // in EEPROM
CONST // end of VAR section implies an implicit $SPACE RAM
 EE_VALUE = 0; // constant
VAR
 EE_INDEX: BYTE; // in RAM
