[Mspgcc-users] Why would mspgcc complain

[Paul F. Sehorne]

I'm portiing the TI Chronos Sports Watch firmware from IAR.  Why would 
mspgcc complain "error: invalid initializer"

[code]
// In smpl_config.h (changed smpl_config.dat to a header file)
#define THIS_DEVICE_ADDRESS  "{0x79, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12}"
// In nwk_types.h
typedef struct
{
  uint8_t  addr[NET_ADDR_SIZE];
} addr_t;


// In nwk_globals.c
static const addr_t   sMyROMAddress = THIS_DEVICE_ADDRESS;  // compiler 
complains "nwk_globals.c:60: error: invalid initializer"
[/code]
