Using 2 Costum Code Blocks !!Help!!

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Thu May 09, 2013 10:45 pm

HI all,

I want to use two of the same costum code blocks.
The point is I want to control two graphic displays with one microcontroller (KS0108)
I'm using the costum component from the side and I have renamed them accordingly.

When I try to compile it gives me this error:

What is the problem here and how can I fix this.
If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it.

Hi.

I haven't had a chance to look at your code, but the issue is that you are defining the same symbols twice.

Adding 'MX_DATA_PORT' as a define or variable twice in the same program is illegal.

If it is the same value each time you can add the code (examples only):

Code: Select all

#ifndef  MX_DATA_PORT
  #define MX_DATA_PORT xyz
#endif

Or:

Code: Select all

#ifndef  MX_DATA_PORT
  UINT8 MX_DATA_PORT = xyz;
  #define MX_DATA_PORT MX_DATA_PORT
#endif

You could customise each individual component for different values using the code:

Code: Select all

#ifdef  MX_DATA_PORT
  #undef MX_DATA_PORT
#endif
#define MX_DATA_PORT unique_xyz

Or:

Code: Select all

UINT8 Unique_Var_Name = xyz;
#ifdef  MX_DATA_PORT
  #undef MX_DATA_PORT
#endif
#define MX_DATA_PORT Unique_Var_Name

I hope this makes sense. Good luck,

Jonny

Jonny,

Could you help me with adjusting the costum code file so I can use it in Flowcode,
I have tried to get it to work today but no success.

Regards Jordy

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Mon May 13, 2013 10:41 pm

Hi Jordy.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm afraid with the pressures of Flowcode v6 I don't have much at the moment. If you post the custom code file here then I or someone else can have a look at it, but I cant promise anything at the moment.

Jonny

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Tue May 14, 2013 4:40 am

Thanks jonny,

I will post the costum code file when I get back from work.
Maybe you have some time in your lunch break

.

Anyway thanks for the effort.
By-the-way how is it going with v6?

Thanks again,
Jordy

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Tue May 14, 2013 10:50 am

Hi Jordy. OK, no probs.

v6 is going well - still a lot to do but things are coming together and becoming stable. Just in the final stages now but always working I haven't had a lunch break in a long time!

Hi Jonny,

I'm really curious about the new futures in Flowcode version 6.
Do you already have a prediction of the release date??

Anyway lets stay on topic should we

Here is the costum code for the KS0108 Display.

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Tue May 14, 2013 10:17 pm

Evening.

Here is an unfinished bit of code for your custom LCD. You will have to find a way of changing the unique identifier for each instance - through the custom code will work.

FC5_PIC_Custom-1.c: (22.68 KiB) Downloaded 293 times

The code is commented, the keys are the MX_LCD_INSTANCE, MX_UNIQUE and MX_LCD_INITIALISED defines.

Good luck with it, I hope this is enough to go on (and the code compiles - I haven't tried this - there may be typos!)

V6 is hopefully a couple of months away, and offers a lot of functionality to package your own components, including simulation. Deadlines are very tight though, so dates are only pencilled in at present.

Jonny

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Wed May 15, 2013 5:57 pm

Hi Jonny can you tell me what to do,

I was thinking that I need to rename all these defines:

Code: Select all

//Common defines
#define MX_DATA_PORT 		%a
#define MX_DATA_TRIS		%b
#define MX_CONTROL_PORT		%c
#define MX_CONTROL_TRIS		%d
#define MX_CS1			%e
#define MX_CS2			%f
#define MX_DAT_INST		%g
#define MX_ENABLE		%h
#define MX_READ_WRITE		%i

For lets say this:

#define MX_DATA_PORT1 %a
#define MX_DATA_TRIS1 %b
#define MX_CONTROL_PORT1 %c
#define MX_CONTROL_TRIS1 %d
ect...

Is this correct or do I misunderstand you

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Wed May 15, 2013 6:51 pm

Hello.

Variables have a location in memory tied to their name. You can not do:
char VALUE = 0;
char VALUE = 1;
As there is now two locations for 'VALUE'.

#defines do not have this limitation. You can do:

#define VALUE 0
#undef VALUE
#define VALUE 1

The posted code redefines the MX_DATA_PORT etc connection stuff by un-defining the previous version. You can give them all different names, but this is only needed if they are used in the same place. If they are used one after another as the components are added you can define, use, undefine, define, use.

I hope this makes sense.

Jonny

Hi jonny,

I have tried all weekend to make the custom code to work but I cant get it to work at all,
I'm afraid to ask but can you wave your magic wand for me

As I'm trying I don't see where I'm going wrong, And i do not have enough brain cells to understand this sort of coding

.

I hope you have some time for me,

Anyway, Thanks

Jordy

A gentle topic kick, In the hope that jonny has some time to look at my problem.
Don't want to push anyone because I know your all busy at the moment

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Mon May 27, 2013 9:33 pm

Hi Jordy.

With the code I posted are you still getting the same errors? The #undef of these should remove any prior references. If the errors have changed please post what you have so far.

Do you know where the problem is.
Also an apology for the late response, I'm currently very busy with work and school.

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Sat Jun 01, 2013 10:33 pm

Hi Jordy, I know the feeling - will reply when I can though.

With any compiler output messages it also helps to post the generated C code program - or if the code is sensitive the part around the error lines at a minimum. You can PM if it is commercial.

From what that looks like I would guess some of the code I posted had a typo somewhere, or I have used the wrong types to declare variables, but that is only a guess without seeing what code is on those lines in the C file.

Remember the code I posted was unfinished and needed the macro names changing over to MXU_... - if you post what you have so far I can perhaps take a look and see if I can see any issues.

Jonny

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Sun Jun 02, 2013 9:59 pm

Hi Jonny here is the C Code generated from the Flowcode file,
I hope you can find something in here,

I wont be able to reply tomorrow because I have some major exams to do for the success of my education.

Anyway let me know if you find something.
Regards Jordy

PS. Thanks for all the effort.

JonnyW · Post by **JonnyW** » Sun Jun 02, 2013 10:18 pm

Hello.

You have a bad define at the top of your second component:

Code: Select all

	//Common defines
	#define MX_DATA_PORT 	    portf	my value
	#define MX_DATA_TRIS	    trisf

The 'my value' should not be there. If you remove and rebuild this might be better.

Good luck in your exams.

Jonny

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Mon Jun 03, 2013 3:28 pm

Jonny,

I have tried to remove this issue in the custom code, but when I go into Flowcode and click on the component to view the code,
I cannot seem to find this my value typo anywhere, When I go to the C Code file I can find this typo and delete it rebuild the code and is gives the same error message.
And the Typo returns in the C Code file,

What can I do

Post by **kersing** » Mon Jun 03, 2013 9:24 pm

Could you check the component properties for the value? Or post your flow chart for us to check?

Post by **Benj** » Tue Jun 04, 2013 9:34 am

Hi Jordy,

Sounds like your editing the project C file rather then the custom component C file. This can be found in the Flowcode/Components directory or you can use the code customization feature to override the component C file.

However if this is not the issue I have had problems before when trying to make changes to files in program files. The changes look to have worked but reloading the file and the changes have dissapeared. Try copying out the file from program files before editing or ensure your text editor is running with admin permissions to overcome this issue.

Jordy101091 · Post by **Jordy101091** » Tue Jun 04, 2013 5:44 pm

Oke I have figured out on how to remove this "my variable" thing in the C Code,
I have compiled the code again and this is what is says.

Hi. OK, no probs.

You will need to change the custom code tolook like this:

Code: Select all

	//ASCII Pixel data
	#ifndef MX_FCD_CUSTOMCMPNT
	#define MX_FCD_CUSTOMCMPNT
	rom char* ASCII1 = {0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00,       // space // 32  - 43
						0x00 , 0x06 , 0x5F , 0x06 , 0x00,       // !

And at the end of the list:

Code: Select all

	rom char* ASCII8 = {0x04 , 0x3E , 0x44 , 0x24 , 0x00,       // t // 116 - 126
						0x3C , 0x40 , 0x20 , 0x7C , 0x00,       // u
						0x1C , 0x20 , 0x40 , 0x20 , 0x1C,       // v
						0x3C , 0x60 , 0x30 , 0x60 , 0x3C,       // w
						0x6C , 0x10 , 0x10 , 0x6C , 0x00,       // x
						0x9C , 0xA0 , 0x60 , 0x3C , 0x00,       // y
						0x64 , 0x54 , 0x54 , 0x4C , 0x00,       // z
						0x08 , 0x3E , 0x41 , 0x41 , 0x00,       // {
						0x00 , 0x00 , 0x7F , 0x00 , 0x00,       // |
						0x00 , 0x41 , 0x41 , 0x3E , 0x08,       // }
						0x02 , 0x01 , 0x02 , 0x01 , 0x00};      // ~
	#endif // #ifndef MX_FCD_CUSTOMCMPNT

This will mean those arrays are only included once in the C file, which will allow us to get to the next error!

Good luck,

Jonny
