SFR definitions, another method apart from structures

[Wraith]

I have recenrtly started coding using this compiler and found the lack of SFR definitions disappointing. In defining my own I found that the recommended way involves structures. I found that using this method gave poor result in 'if' statements(it didn't work!). A better way of doing this is:

// ADCON0
#bit ADON = 0x0FC2.0
#bit GO_DONE = 0x0FC2.1
#bit CHS0 = 0x0FC2.2
#bit CHS1 = 0x0FC2.3
#bit CHS2 = 0x0FC2.4
#bit CHS3 = 0x0FC2.5
#byte ADCON0 = 0x0FC2

instead of the structure method:

// ADCON0
extern struct {
unsigned ADON:1;
unsigned GO_DONE:1;
unsigned CHS0:1;
unsigned CHS1:1;
unsigned CHS2:1;
unsigned CHS3:1;
unsigned unused:1;
unsigned unused:1;
} ADCON0bits;

#byte ADCON0bits = 0x06
#byte ADCON0 = 0x06

They work just fine. Maybe yours didn't work because of this change to the compiler

The compiler operation concerning type conversions to an int1 have changed to
be ANSI compliant.
Old way:
onebit = eightbits; // Same as: onebit = (eightbits != 0)

New way:
onebit = eightbits; // Same as: onebit = (eightbits & 1)
