Seems it similar to this bug:
Code:

program RAW_IMAGE 'test';
#set bits 32;
#set awd true;
const str1 = 'mystr1\x0';
char buf[11] = str1;

Result:
Code:

6D 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

And this:
Code:

program RAW_IMAGE 'test';
#set bits 32;
#set awd true;
const str1 = 'mystr1\x0';
char buf[10] = str1;

Fixed for next release, I also found a related bug which was outputting garbled characters in some cases.

Code:

program RAW_IMAGE 'test';

#set bits 32;

#set awd true;
char* str1[2] = ['qwerty\x0', 
                 'asdfgh\x0'];

Compile -- ok, but actually Ziron craches.
Result only this:
Code:

71 77 65 72 61 73 64 66

In ascii:
Code:

qwerasdf

“	Initalized data size is too large

Fixed for next release.

“	Compile -- ok, but actually Ziron craches.

Also fixed for next release.

Regarding the output, it looks correct, char* is 4 bytes each, however this may be a good idea to allow ziron to create an array of pointers to strings, perfect for string tables, so maybe I will update this.

Yes, this of course good idea smile

“	Regarding the output, it looks correct

Seems it incorrect. Because if we use 'strings in quotes' then usually pointers to these strings used.

For example:
Code:

function  X(char* str1) {}
X('mystring');

Result:
Code:

00000000  6813000000        push dword 0x13
00000005  E800000000        call dword 0xa
0000000A  55                push ebp
0000000B  8BEC              mov ebp,esp
0000000D  8BE5              mov esp,ebp
0000000F  5D                pop ebp
00000010  C20400            ret 0x4
//.................................

Where Code:

push dword 0x13

really uses address of string. String really at address 0x13.

Yes, this is usually the case for constant strings.

The 2 options are.... when you want to assign a string as characters to a variable you would use ord (regardless of size)....

Or the compiler detects pointer types and creates pointers to the data instead.
