Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler
I prefer using defined names instead of having to go back and forth to find port and pin numbers.
I want to monitor a 3.3V logic input from a 5V voltage monitor.
In my code I have tried
#define 5Vgood hetPORT1, 1
and then
while(gioGetBit(5Vgood)==0); //to wait for the voltage to be "good"
I get this error for the definition:
../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 101: error #41: expected an identifier
and the following errors for the usage in the while statement:
../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 180: error #19: extra text after expected end of number
"../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 180: warning #169-D: argument of type "int" is incompatible with parameter of type "gioPORT_t *"
"../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 180: warning #154-D: conversion of nonzero integer to pointer
"../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 180: error #167: too few arguments in function call
"../source/HL_sys_main.c", line 259: warning #112-D: statement is unreachable
It works when I use the convention below, but then I always have to update all occurences in the code if something changes.
while(gioGetBit(hetPORT1,1)==0);//wait for 5V good
Is this simply because the HETPORT doesn't mesh with the gioPORT_t type?
Using this type of definition works fine for PortA and B as follows:
#define ldFault gioPORTA, 0
Any ideas how to use a define to simplify things?
Thanks in advance
