Data Types question
PostPosted: Mon Oct 17, 2005 12:31 pm     Reply with quote

Hi there all I'm having problems with data types and hoped someone here could set me straight. I've designed my own LCD driver that uses a shift register to allow for only 3 lines to be connected to the pic. I've provided below a sample of what I currently have that works and an example of what i'm trying to do that at this point does not work. Any help would be welcome. Thanks!

Code:

int8 type1;

type1 = 1;
++type1; // type1 should now equal 2

send_lcd("send this"); /// This line works fine
send_lcd(type1); // this outputs garbage on the screen, I need it to output the value of type1

Thank you very much. I hunted before I posted and came up with several others but they all were indicating that I should direct the output into another varible instead of directing it directly into the sub routine. Now that i've done that it works great.. Thanks again.
