adding serial number problem
PostPosted: Sat Oct 22, 2005 7:01 am     Reply with quote

hi there

i am trying to add serial number to the program that i am writing. in the manual i came across

the following code:

Code:

int8 const serialNumA=100;
#serialize (id = serialNumA, next = "200", prompt = "Enter the serial number", log = "seriallog.txt")


but when i compile it, it gives me an error saying
invalid pre-processor directive.

so how exactly can i add a serial number?

I am using the PCW compiler.

thanks

Your version of the compiler probably doesn't support #serialize.
Here is the version when CCS added support:

3.162 Serial number support added and more advanced ICD.EXE is released


I compiled the following test program with PCH vs. 3.235, and it
compiled without error. (First, I had to take out all the spaces
that you had inserted after the equal signs and the commas.
It doesn't like those spaces).

Code:
#include <18F452.H>
#fuses XT, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, BROWNOUT, PUT, NOLVP   
#use delay(clock=4000000)

int8 const serialNumA=100;
#serialize (id=100,next="200",prompt="Enter the serial number",log="seriallog.txt")

void main()
{

while(1);
}

hi there

I am using compiler version 3.148.

What i am doing is programming a PIC with another PIC and i have to add a serial number to the PIC. I have to add it from my GUI.

I tried using the #serialise stuff but i dont think that my compiler version supports it.

Is there anyway to store the serial number? would it work if i stored it in the ID locations? Does that mean i would have to write to the ID locations? If yes how can i do that?

Another thing is that is it possible to read back the serial number on the target device?

thanks in advance
Waiting in anticipation and hope.

From CCS Compiler Version:
