Passing rs232 stream id into a function PCD
PostPosted: Tue Dec 15, 2009 7:38 pm     Reply with quote
Hey,

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm using PCD compiler with a dsPIC30F4011.

As in the manual, I'm using two rs232 ports by doing:

Code:

#use rs232(baud=57600, xmit=PIN_F5, rcv=PIN_F4, stream=COM_A)
#use rs232(baud=57600, xmit=PIN_F3, rcv=PIN_F2, stream=COM_B)


I would like to define a function like so:
Code:

int sendSerialPacket(int* data, int length, short com)
{
// Code
}


which would be called like:
Code:

sendSerialPacket(data, 4, COM_A)


or something like that.

How do I type this stream_id variable? I know that it's an 8-bit constant, so I've tried short and char and adding const. I'm trying to use the pre-processor as little as possible.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the link, although I don't like hearing that it's impossible. Sad

It did give me an idea though!

It's not impossible.

You just have to use a switch statement.

So you *can* accomplish sending to one COM or another, you just can't do it by manipulating the STREAM ID.

Cheers,
