Hi,
On the Arduino, if you want to allocate a large block of memory (say, 200KB), you do it just using a malloc(). However, this doesn't work on the ShieldBuddy as it hangs (on core0) or traps (core1).
On a simple ShieldBuddy project, what is the best way to allocate the memory? Usually I could also use a large block defined in the source but that gives the error: "AurduinoMulticoreUser.elf section `.bss' will not fit in region `int_dsprcpu0'"
How should I allocate such a block of memory? There should be enough RAM available for 200KB, and even if not, it should just return a NULL pointer.
Thanks!
