enum with 16-bit values
PostPosted: Fri Dec 05, 2008 1:30 am     Reply with quote

Colleagues,

I have a quick question (unfortunately, I couldn't find the answer in online help). Can enum have 16-bit values? I've tried enum {C = 0xFFFF}; and it compiled, however I still want to check with the community.

Thanks,
- Nick

I don't know, but would take a look at the code, the expression compiles to.

None of my enums (including the 8-bit ones that have been proven to work), consts and #defines show ASM code next to them in the C/ASM listing.

No, the code will be where you use it.
Code:

 enum test {C = 0xFFFF};


 test val;
 int16 dummy;
 dummy=(int16)test;

If you look at the list, and the sym file, you will find that 'val', is declared using 16bits, and two bytes are copied:
Code:

....................  dummy=(int16)val;
*
0031:  MOVF   22,W
0032:  MOVWF  24
0033:  MOVF   21,W
0034:  MOVWF  23


So, yes.

Best Wishes
