How to use "goto_address() and "return"
PostPosted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 8:45 pm     Reply with quote

Hi,

Can someone guide me? I do not really understand how to use "goto_address()" and "return" if I require to jump to another function.

actually I need to jump from function1(looping) to another function2(without looping), then return back to function1. Below is my simple coding... Hope can get your kindly help..

Code:

void main()
{
   int32 location;
   Int16 heading;
   set_tris_b(0b00000011);
   output_low(PIN_B2);
   output_low(PIN_B3);
   
      while(true)
      {
         heading=(HMC6352_read_heading())/10;
         lcd_init();
         printf(lcd_putc, "\fHeading degree:");
         printf(lcd_putc, "\n     %LuDE", heading);   //display the heading degree from digital compass
         delay_ms(1000);
     
         goto_address(location);
      } 
 
   int32 servo_degree(void)   
   {
      Initial:
         location=label_address(Initial);
     
      switch(heading)
      {
         
         case 000:      output_high(LED_2);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 001:      output_high(LED_2);   
                        delay_ms(3000);break; 
         case 002:      output_high(LED_2);   
                        delay_ms(3000);break;               
         case 355:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 356:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 357:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;               
         default:       output_low(LED_2);
                        output_low(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
      }
      return;
   }
   
}   


error existed in my compiler

    int32 servo_degree(void) ------->ERROR: A numerical expression must appear here.

Code:
int32 servo_degree(void)

Why are you make it as int32 when not even taking anything "(void)"
It would make sense like this...

Code:
int32 servo_degree(degree)     //call as servo_degree(180):
where a degree is a 32bit number!
Also degree is 0-360 why are you need int32, int16 will be just fine.


note:
1 - goto not used in C/C++
2 - gosub has the return from sub option anyway
3 - goto cant use return, program execution just continue from the new address.

As dezso explained, goto_address() is of no use in regular C programming. If you don't have a very special problem and aren't familiar with low level programming details, simply forget about it.

Your intended action will be exactly achieved by just writing

Code:
servo_degree();

instead of goto_address(location)

If you need to switch between different working functions, use a case structure or functions pointers.

As servo_degree don't use a return value, it can be defined as void function.

You need to take the subroutine out of the main subroutine as such:

Code:


   int32 servo_degree(void)   
   {
      Initial:
         location=label_address(Initial);
     
      switch(heading)
      {
         
         case 000:      output_high(LED_2);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 001:      output_high(LED_2);   
                        delay_ms(3000);break; 
         case 002:      output_high(LED_2);   
                        delay_ms(3000);break;               
         case 355:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 356:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
         case 357:      output_high(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;               
         default:       output_low(LED_2);
                        output_low(LED_3);
                        delay_ms(3000);break;
      }
      return;


void main()
{
   int32 location;
   Int16 heading;
   set_tris_b(0b00000011);
   output_low(PIN_B2);
   output_low(PIN_B3);
   
      while(true)
      {
         heading=(HMC6352_read_heading())/10;
         lcd_init();
         printf(lcd_putc, "\fHeading degree:");
         printf(lcd_putc, "\n     %LuDE", heading);   //display the heading degree from digital compass
         delay_ms(1000);
     
         goto_address(location);
      } 
 

   }
   
}   

You can then call the functions within the main subroutine.
