Any idea why this code doesn't work as a 16 bit ring buffer?

StatOverflow As bit
StatusFlash As word

		StatOverflow = StatusFlash.15
		StatusFlash = Word(StatusFlash << 1)
		StatusFlash.0 = StatOverflow

The bits are somewhat wonky.

Seems to work ok here from what I see.

Can you describe "wonky"?

Oh, and what version are you using?

If you're using the SE version, I take that back.

Both SE 2213 and 2216 seem to have issues.

Using 2216 (the latest), it appears that the shift code works properly, but there are some issues with words.

Code: Select all

StatusFlash = $0000
StatusFlash = $aaaa      // produces $00AA
StatusFlash = $8001
StatusFlash = $5555      // produces $8055
StatusFlash = $1234

Thank you, thought I was seeing things

I think I have an old copy of Swordfish with the USB key, apparently it can be upgraded to the Si version.

Great.

Not sure what version you're using, but if you install the latest release (version 2.2.1.7), things should work ok.

The full version fixed it. Thanks again.
