The DATA_ALIGN pragma aligns the symbol in C, or the next symbol declared in C++, to an alignment boundary. The alignment boundary is the maximum of the symbol's default alignment value or the value of the constant in bytes. The constant must be a power of 2. The maximum alignment is 32768.
The DATA_ALIGN pragma cannot be used to reduce an object's natural alignment.
Using the DATA_ALIGN pragma has the same effect as using the GCC-style aligned variable attribute. See Section 5.17.3.
The syntax of the pragma in C is:
| #pragma DATA_ALIGN (symbol, constant) |
The syntax of the pragma in C++ is:
| #pragma DATA_ALIGN (constant) |
