Copy Variable
PostPosted: Sat Mar 17, 2012 2:18 am     Reply with quote
How to insert a variable from one function to another?
For example:
Code:


func(1){
var_name=10;
var_name+=10;
printf("var_name = %d", var_name);
}

void main(){
unsigned int8 var_name;

while (1){
 func(1);
 }
}

How could I print variable declared in main function, to another one?

Thx in advance!

Basic C. I'd suggest you get a C primer....

Code:

void func(unsigned int8 ival){
//This says 'func', is a function returning nothing (hence 'void', but
//expecting to receive an unsigned int8, which it will refer to internally
//as ival
    ival+=10; //Add ten to the value passed
    printf("main val+10 = %d\n\r", ival);
}

void main(void){
    unsigned int8 int_var; //Call your variables with names that help
    //you remember 'what' they can hold
   
    int_var=20;
    while (1){
      func(int_var);
   }
}

Which will print "main val+10 = 30" taking the value passed _to_ it from main, adding ten, and then printing it.
You need to read a basic book on C, since you can then return a value as well (which can be different), or use global variables (study the dangers of these). This is basic 'programming 101' stuff, not really what this forum is for.

The C Programing Language is the "bible" for C programming.

Seriously, by a primer, I meant a primer. The C programming language, is pretty much written for programmers, and though the book everyone should have, I really would suggest starting with a basic C primer. A Google search will find dozens.

While K&R "The C Programming Language" is the "bible", it can also cure insomnia Shocked Browse through the books at places like Amazon.com and look at the user comments - what works for one person may not for another, but there are some excellent intro books out there - definitely worth the investment.
