Passing array
PostPosted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 12:06 am     Reply with quote

I'm facing a spurious result while passing array to the functions.
For example, to compare two strings

Code:

char str1[6]="hello";
char str2[6]="hello";

if(strcmp(str1,str2)== 0)
  match found
else
  mismatch

If I use the above statement I'm not getting the correct output, however if I change the statement like this
Code:

if(strcmp(&str1[0],&str2[0]) == 0)
  match found
else
  mismatch

then I would able to get the correct answer. What will be the problem ?

Tell us the critical thing. _Compiler version_.
There was an oddity reported here a few weeks before with the handling of arrays and pointers on 4.134, and it could be this re-appearing in a different form...

I tested the program shown below with vs. 4.127 and vs. 4.129 and it
works every time for me. It always shows match found. This was
tested in MPLAB simulator.

Code:

#include <18F2620.h>
#fuses INTRC_IO, NOWDT
#use delay(clock=4M)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, ERRORS)

#include <string.h>

char str1[6]="hello";
char str2[6]="hello";

//======================================
void main()
{

if(strcmp(str1,str2) == 0)
  printf("match found \r");
else
  printf("mismatch \r"); 

printf("\r"); 

while(1);
}

For me also its working with simulator, but when tested with the hardware I'm not getting the expected result. Thats why I have posted this question. What may be wrong in this case ?

I took the time late last night to stick it into a 2620, and test it for real. Runs fine for me, compiled with 4.118, 4.127 and 4.134.
I'm wondering if there is a problem with your install. The file containing the chip details, is 'devices.dat', and this is version specific. I don't remember ever seeing a download that gives a different .pch version from the .pcm version, and since they share this file, wonder at seeing .pch at .129, with the other files all at .127.....
