Jaromir,

Its true for all compilers, as long as the .text
region (RO section in ADS) is located in Flash (in the
link step) \ufffd all constants & literals will go along
with the code. If the code is located in Flash, so
will constants & literals.

void myfunc()
{
char *ptr = "my string";
}

In this case \ufffdmy string\ufffd will be placed along with
code.

Cheers,
-Mike.
