[Bug other/15628] New: GCC automatically initializes variables to 0

Tue May 25 02:03:00 GMT 2004

I'm running AVR GCC which automatically initializes all variables to 0 before 
the main code is executed. It is critical that this does not happen since all 
variable values need to be retained if the watchdog kicks in and my AVR is 
reset. Is there some way automatic variable initialization could be disabled.

Regards,
Francois CronjÃ©
