存储在闪存中的字符串数组，其中包含Arduino中的PROGMEM

Question

I am using AVR-GCC version 4.7.0, and when I attempt to create an array of strings in FLASH memory I get the error:

variable 'menu' must be const in order to be put into read-only section by means of ' attribute ((progmem))'

I am using this code:

const char menu0[] PROGMEM = "choice0";
const char menu1[] PROGMEM = "choice1";
const char menu2[] PROGMEM = "choice2";
const char menu3[] PROGMEM = "choice3";
const char menu4[] PROGMEM = "choice4";
const char menu5[] PROGMEM = "choice5";

const char *menu[] PROGMEM = {menu0, menu1, menu2, menu3, menu4, menu5};

I have already read Stack Overflow question C - how to use PROGMEM to store and read char array , but all the answers I see don't include the const keyword which makes me believe that they were written before it was needed.

How does one fix this problem?

const char * const menu[] PROGMEM = {menu0, menu1, menu2, menu3, menu4, menu5};

was the answer.

Answer 1

Try

const char* const menu[] PROGMEM...

Thus the array itself is constant, not a mutable array of const char* pointers, as it were in the original code.
