SDCC 2.6.0 working with MIOS wrapper, but there is an issue...

MIOS programming (C)
1

Today I’ve tested SDCC 2.6.0 for compatibility with the MIOS wrapper.

It seems that all functions are still working… so, these are the good news :slight_smile:

But the bad news are, that I found a bug in SDCC during the tests - see http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1539278&group_id=599&atid=100599

So, currently I cannot recomment the usage of the most recent SDCC versions until this bug has been fixed

I’ve released a new SDCC wrapper version v1_9a which got a fix for one of my own bugs (MIOS_HLP_Dec2BCD now working as expected)

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thanks for your work TK :slight_smile:

Hopefully it’ll get fixed before long… They’re pretty good with updates.

cool :slight_smile:

I wanted to access this function in _asm, but it’s fine hearing that, thank you!

When I saw your bug report, I was very reliefed in another point: as I’m using SDCC v 2.5.4. I have always had problems initializing all bytes of an Union; I just thought I did something wrong  ::slight_smile:

Best regards,

Just got the message that the reported bug has been fixed in r4359

Too bad that we propably have to wait for some months until the next official release (where other open problems are solved as well). However, for those who don’t fear the adventure: try the next snapshot release

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thanks TK!

I’m suffering badly from chronic RSI at the moment (i’ve damaged my rotator cuffs) so I’m not writing much code but I’ll give it a shot ASAP.

stryd_, I’ve been really shocked about this, ‘cause I didn’t know the words RSI and rotator cuffs and that sounded quite freakin’! Now that I’ve looked them up, I’m a bit reliefed that your heart and brain are okay ;D and wish you a good recovering! (and regarding your number of posts, leaving the desk and going out seems not the badest idea :wink: ;D hehe…  )
