printf with arrays
PostPosted: Sat Feb 28, 2009 7:27 pm     Reply with quote

I'm trying to use printf to print a series of array data to my LCD but it won't compile. I keep getting this error: "Printf variable count (%) does not match actual count" My compiler is PCM 4.086.

Here is my code:
Code:

// parameters
int16 pv[5];           // current temperature 0-500   

void main()
{
lcd_init();

pv[0]=200;
pv[1]=202;
pv[2]=204;
pv[3]=206;
pv[4]=208;

printf(lcd_putc, "\f%s %s %s %s %s",   "TNK",   "HS1",   "GN1",   "HS2",    "GN2");
printf(lcd_putc, "\n%u %u %u %u %u", pv[0], pv[1], pv[2], pv[3], pv[4]);


I have also tried this with the same result:
Code:

printf(lcd_putc, "\n%u %u %u %u %u", *(pv), *(pv+1), *(pv+2), *(pv+3), *(pv+4));


Any tips on how to do this?

What I can see is that you are trying to print longs with %u, you should use %Lu.

That fixed it. The compiler must have been trying to tell me in a roundabout way that I had the wrong number of bytes.

I stared and stared and couldn't see my mistake. I'm not used to 8 bit integers and 16 bit longs yet.

Many Thanks...
