memcpy problem
PostPosted: Mon Dec 31, 2007 2:00 am     Reply with quote

Hi,

i have a problem with memcpy.

Here is my code:

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

BYTE CONST data1[30] = {
0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, // 32
0x00, 0x00, 0x5F, 0x5F, 0x00, 0x00, // 33
0x00, 0x03, 0x00, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, // 34
0x14, 0x3E, 0x14, 0x14, 0x3E, 0x14, // 35
0x4E, 0x4A, 0xFF, 0x4A, 0x7A, 0x00, // 36
};

BYTE CONST data2 [5][6] = {
0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, // 32
0x00, 0x00, 0x5F, 0x5F, 0x00, 0x00, // 33
0x00, 0x03, 0x00, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, // 34
0x14, 0x3E, 0x14, 0x14, 0x3E, 0x14, // 35
0x4E, 0x4A, 0xFF, 0x4A, 0x7A, 0x00, // 36
};



void print_array()
{
int i = 0;

int font_data[50];

memcpy(font_data, data1[0], 6);

for(i=0;i<30;i++)
{
printf(" 0x%x",font_data[i]); // IF I USE A "ONE DIMENSION ARRAY"
delay_ms(100); // I GET GARBAGE
}


memcpy(font_data, data2[0], 6);

for(i=0;i<30;i++)
{
printf(" 0x%x",font_data[i]); // IF I USE A "TWO DIMENSION ARRAY"
delay_ms(100); // THE RESULT IS OK
}


}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Can anyone help me on my problem, because i want to use memcpy also
at "normal arrays"

You need to give it the starting address of the array:
Quote:
memcpy(font_data, data1, 6);

Because CCS doesn't support pointers to constant data,
you can't do address arithmetic on the source address.
For example, the 2nd parameter can't be 'data+6' or &data[6]
or &data[i]. The compiler gives an error message if you do that.
But CCS makes an exception to their rule, by allowing memcpy to
work if you give it the starting address of the 'const' array, as
shown in the example above.
