compiler problem?
PostPosted: Wed Jul 16, 2008 9:53 am     Reply with quote
hi,
i got this code
Code:

....................   g_sSysConfigData.gps_log.distance = SYSDATA_GPS_LOG_DISTANCE;
00986:  CLRF   x99
00988:  MOVWF  x98
.................... 
....................   /* system identifications and calibration */
....................   // box ID
....................   for(u8Index = 0; u8Index < SYSDATA_BOX_ID_LEN; u8Index++)
0098A:  MOVLB  4
0098C:  CLRF   xA5
0098E:  MOVLB  4
00990:  MOVF   xA5,W
00992:  SUBLW  06
00994:  BTFSS  FD8.0
00996:  GOTO   09DA
0099A:  MOVLB  0
....................   {
....................     g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.boxid[u8Index] = SYSDATA_BOX_ID[u8Index];
0099C:  CLRF   03
0099E:  MOVLB  4
009A0:  MOVF   xA5,W
009A2:  ADDLW  07
009A4:  MOVWF  01
009A6:  MOVLW  00
009A8:  ADDWFC 03,F
009AA:  MOVF   01,W
009AC:  ADDLW  7E
009AE:  MOVWF  FE9
009B0:  MOVLW  00
009B2:  ADDWFC 03,W
009B4:  MOVWF  FEA
009B6:  CLRF   03
009B8:  MOVF   xA5,W
009BA:  MOVFF  FF2,4A8
009BE:  BCF    FF2.7
009C0:  MOVLB  0
009C2:  CALL   00BE
009C6:  MOVLB  4
009C8:  BTFSC  xA8.7
009CA:  BSF    FF2.7
009CC:  MOVWF  FEF
009CE:  MOVLB  0
....................   }
009D0:  MOVLB  4
009D2:  INCF   xA5,F
009D4:  GOTO   098E
009D8:  MOVLB  0
....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.calib_status = SYSDATA_VSS_NO_CALIB;
009DA:  CLRF   x7E
....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.tracking_enable = FALSE;
009DC:  CLRF   x93
....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.input_map = 0;
009DE:  CLRF   x94
....................   //g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.input_map = 0x1E;


when the above code excecution, somehow the g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.calib_status, g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.tracking_enable and g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.input_map don't get the correct initialized values, but the g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.boxid got the correct initialized values.

I used PCWH 4.033 and pic 18F720
the symbol is located 07E-109 g_sSysConfigData

any idea what is the cause of this problem?

Thank you

What you post, _does_ correctly initialise the locations you mention. It is only the very last few lines of the code, but:
Code:

009D8:  MOVLB  0
//Selects '0xx' as the addresses to be used.
....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.calib_status = SYSDATA_VSS_NO_CALIB;
009DA:  CLRF   x7E
//Clears address 07E - depends what you have //'SSSDATA_VSS_NO_CALIB' defined as.

....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.tracking_enable = FALSE;
009DC:  CLRF   x93
//Clears address 093 - since 'false' in C is a '0' this is correct

....................   g_sSysConfigData.manufacture.input_map = 0;
009DE:  CLRF   x94
//Clears address 094

So the code is doing exactly what you have told it to do...

Comments though. 4.033, is right on the 'cusp' of when V4 compilers started to work reasonably. I'd be 'wary' of using it.
The actual fault is probably somewhere else. Some pointer arithmetic 'walking' over this area of memory, this code not actually being called, etc. etc..
Add a debug check, right in front of the last few initialisations. Output the values. Do the same immediately afterwards.
Then, when you find the locations are initialised, see where they are changed by something else.

hi Ttelmah,

I did single step through the code, and I exammed the variable right away after the single step.

Seriously, the code is doing what it should.
1) Are you confident in the hardware you used to single step the code. Simulator faults are not uncommon.
2) Do you have anything _else_ that could affect the locations (interrupt routine)?.
3) Add a debugging line immediately after the writes, printing out the values. Disable interrupts before. Run this on a real chip. Does it do the same?.

Best Wishes
