What was the problem?

I have sent you a PM

I think Jerry has covered it, but this is what I put on my website some time ago:

the protocol PDF may be of interest

You're messages don't show as sent until someone picks them up.

I have PM'd you.

Thanks Jerry!

Hi The code you have posted looks looks more like PROTON (or POSITRON as it is called now). Some examples include: Declare Xtal = 20 => clock = 20 Dim pinLed PORTB.5 => Dim pinLed As PORTB.5 High OnLed => High(OnLed) pause 50 => delayms(50) also your block and loop constructs: while wend => while [b...

This is the correct and best way of doing it...

Yes, you will have to use a workaround - something like: or

Thanks, I can see that now. It looks like the routine isn't being linked in correctly. I can think of a number of fixes but I know Jerry has spent some considerable time on this module so don't want fiddle with his code ;-) I've asked him to take a look. In the meantime, you can add the following to...

Just for reference, if you want to pass by reference using a 32 bit pointer (rather than 16) use:
for example:

It hopefully will get fixed but internally, it's a complicated change to the compiler and I certainly don't want to break anything! Purely out of interest, why are you accessing a constant in this way in your code?

Can you post a small (as small as possible) piece of main program code that generates the error please

It's a known issue. You cannot do that with string constants. However, you can use an array of char constants...

Yes, the help file is a little outdated. Prototype was added early on but after the compiler release.

Thanks for your kind comments on the compiler...
