Compile message error

[ELINAP]

Hi, I'm using CCS V5.011. Someone can explain me the signification of this error message:

"Can not set this option this far into code"

This append in a multi file project and when compiling the "name_project.H" file

If someone have an idea.

Thx by advance

It means exactly what it says. You can't set the option this far into the code.

In CCS, you generally need the following layout:

1) Processor include
2) #device statements (set ADC resolution etc.)
3) Fuses
4) Clock settings
(these can all obviously be merged into a single include)
5) Then #use statements
6) Then include things - these now _must not_ contain anything in 1 to 4. There can be duplicates of some things in 5.

The warning comes if (for instance), you set a fuse, or have a #device setting after any of 3, 4 or 5.

The basic structure needs to stay this way whatever way you actually lay things out.

It sounds as if you have got past 4, then included name_project.h, which includes something from 1 to 4.

Thanks a lot
