[SOLVED]CCS C- Structures with Pointers
PostPosted: Mon Sep 02, 2019 4:37 am     Reply with quote

Hello all,
Again me Smile This time when I load this code to my dsPIC, I can't see my car's model and colour. I exactly get this output from RS232:

First car is :
The color of it :
Max. Speed is : 320
The motor type: 4.19

I want to use pointers. I can see the integers but not strings.

Here is my code:
Code:

#include <./33EP64MC206.h>

#use delay(internal=42MHz)     
#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES NOJTAG                   //JTAG disabled
#FUSES CKSFSM                   //Clock Switching is enabled, fail Safe clock monitor is enabled
#FUSES FRC                     
#FUSES NOOSCIO


#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,stop=1,xmit=PIN_G7 ,rcv=PIN_G6)
 
struct vehicle
{
    char model[10];
    char color[10];
    int max_speed;
    float motor;
   
};
void show(struct vehicle *car)
{
    printf("First car is : %s \r\n",(*car).model[8]);
    printf("The color of it : %s \r\n",(*car).color[5]);
    printf("Max. Speed is : %d\r\n",(*car).max_speed);
    printf("The motor type: %f \r\n",(*car).motor);
   
}
void main()
{
   setup_oscillator(OSC_INTERNAL,42000000)
   
   struct vehicle first;
   struct vehicle *pointer;
   pointer=&first;
   (*pointer).model[8]="mercedes";
   (*pointer).color[5]="black";
   (*pointer).max_speed=320;
   (*pointer).motor=4.20;
   
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);

   
   while(1)
    {
       
      show(pointer);
      output_toggle(pin_b5);
      delay_ms(3000);
       
    }
}

First. to use a structure pointer, look at the -> operator. Much easier to
use in your function.
Then though the big problem is the initialisation. You can't copy a string
with =. This is generic in C. You have to use strcpy, to copy the actual
'string' into the target array. This is why the strings are blank.

Thank you very much for your time Ttelmah. It's working:)
Code:

#include <./33EP64MC206.h>

#use delay(internal=42MHz)     
#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES NOJTAG                   //JTAG disabled
#FUSES CKSFSM                   //Clock Switching is enabled, fail Safe clock monitor is enabled
#FUSES FRC                     
#FUSES NOOSCIO


#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,stop=1,xmit=PIN_G7 ,rcv=PIN_G6)
 
struct vehicle
{
    char model[10];
    char color[10];
    int max_speed;
    float motor;
   
};
void show(struct vehicle *car)
{
  printf("First car is : %s \r\n",car->model);
    printf("The color of it : %s \r\n",car->color);
    printf("Max. Speed is : %d\r\n",car->max_speed);
    printf("The motor type: %f \r\n",car->motor);
   
}
void main()
{
   setup_oscillator(OSC_INTERNAL,42000000)
   
   struct vehicle first;
   struct vehicle *pointer;
  pointer=&first;
   strcpy(pointer->model,"mercedes");
   strcpy(pointer->color,"black");
   pointer->max_speed=320;
   pointer->motor=4.20;
   
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);
   output_toggle(pin_b5);
   delay_ms(100);

   
   while(1)
    {
       
      show(pointer);
      output_toggle(pin_b5);
      delay_ms(3000);
       
    }
}
