Why can't the compiler handle this? [solved]
PostPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 10:14 am     Reply with quote
I'm so frustrated. I have been fighting problems like this forever and today I got the latest compiler 4.119 and still this does not work:

Code:
typedef struct {
    int      Sf [2];      // scale factors for gain and mag
    int      iOffset [4];
    long     vOffset [4];
} HpaData;

HpaData  HPa [3];

void SetNewOffset (int channel, int hpa, int iOffset)
{
    HPa [hpa].iOffset [channel] = iOffset;  // <--- error line
}


Still get the same error:

Quote:

***Error 66: Previous identifier must be a pointer


This error is repeated twice for the same line, with the same line position shown both times.

As you can see, there are no pointers involved in this. HPa is an array of structures that contain arrays.

The worst of the problem is that if I fool around with using the & and * operators long enough so that the compiler will accept it, then it usually gets the math wrong and returns garbage results.

CCS - does not anyone else in the world try to work at this level???

Thanks, Russ

Sorry everyone, dang compiler bit me again. Did not have a #CASE statement. I can't count the # of time that has bit me and I cannot believe I never figured out how to make it observe case before. AFAIK it is standard for all C compilers to observe case...

Sorry - Russ
