Rotate_L_R

Sorry if this is off topic,but I can't find how to rotate left, right more than one bit position in byte?
Thanks, Smile

the CCS manual is a marvel.

suggest you read about

rotate_left()
and rotate_right()

though the doc is misprinted:
the second argument is NOT bytes but number of BITS
you will rotate through
the pointed-to structure, byte or word.

Code:

void rotate_l (int8 *data_buff,int8 size)
{
   int8 i;
   for(i=0;i<size;i++)
   {
      rotate_left (&data_buff[i],i);
   }
}

Invalid parameter to build function -> rotate_left (&data_buff[i],"i");

BTW: what useful purpose does your example failed code represent?
the variable bit shift you are attempting seems nonsensical to this old timer.
ANYWAY-
the second parameter expects a constant not a variable argument.

the forum search function brings up dozens of posts that show proper useage
of the function. And the reason for constants only?

The compiler doesn't like a variable for the 2nd parameter. It wants a
constant for the "number of bytes to rotate".

Also, I'm not sure what your program above is supposed to do.
The rotate_left() function will rotate the specified number of bytes in
an array, to the left by 1 bit. Tell us what you actually want to do.

First, asmboy is wrong. The manual is correct. The rotate functions rotate multiple bytes by one bit. The chip itself only has single bit rotation. If you want to rotate by larger numbers, then you just repeat the rotations.
Remember that C has the inbuilt 'shift' functions >> and <<. These accept variables. Remember too, that a rotation of 8 bits, is just a byte move (the compiler will optimise the inbuilt functions for larger shifts).
You can build your own multi-byte rotates very simply:
Code:

#define RR(locn,bytes,bits) {for (int8 ctr=0;ctr<bits;ctr++) rotate_right(locn,bytes);}


Which follows the same syntax as 'rotate_right', but with an added 'bits' value.

I have for example buffer with 8 bytes and want to rotate_left(right) in this scheme:
byte[0]->rotate 1 bit position left(right);
byte[1]->rotate 2 bit position left(right);
and etc.

Thank you very much Ttelmah, the problem was solved!! Smile

Thanks PCM programmer this also work Smile
