Device required before this line in flex lcd driver |

Hello
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24661
I have copied your code for 2x16 LCD in a new .c file, and I have saved it in Drivers folder in PICC folder.
I included flex_LCD.c in my program and clicked compile.
An Error occurs tells me this:
***Error 128"flex_LCD.c"Line 27(1,43): A #DEVICE required before this line
The line 27 is this one:
Code: | int8 const LCD_INIT_STRING[4] =
{
0x20 | (lcd_type << 2), // Func set: 4-bit, 2 lines, 5x8 dots
0xc, // Display on
1, // Clear display
6 // Increment cursor
};
|
Even it is not logical to add #DEVICE, I tried it and it gets worst
Please Help
I need this file because I can't choose specific pins using LCD.c. |

show your compiler version and ALL your code from the top
not just the snip .
i'm betting the compiler is right however. |

Are you using MPLAB?.
This happens if you put files like this into the 'source files' tab. Only the primary C file must be in this. All the other files need to be in the 'other files' tab. If the file is in the source files tab, MPLAB will try to compile this _separately_, which won't work, since it does not contain processor definitions.
Other thing is the general rule about CCS.
Lay your files out in the main project as:
1) Processor defintion/include
2) Extra device statements (ADC etc.).
3) Fuses
4) Clock
5) Pin select (if applicable to your chip)
6) Peripheral setup (RS232 I2C etc.) - use device names not pins if using select.
7) Then include system include files (stdlib etc.)
8) Then your include files - including things like lcd.
9) Then the rest of the code.
These sections can themselves be in separate include files, but the order you meet them as you read down the files in sequence should be like this.
If this is not basically followed all sorts of problems will arise. If (for instance) you include system files using delays, they won't operate correctly till after the clock settings. Clock setting won't necessarily work right till after the fuses. I/O calls won't work correctly till after the peripheral setup, etc., etc..
Including the lcd.c file too early could also give this error. |
