CCS is not highlighting some function calls in my code

Peter John

Hi there,

Why don't my UARTprintf and UARTStdioInit functions appear in a different colour to indicate they are function calls ? printf does. In the editor I can right click on those two functions and open their declaration OK. The code also builds OK and debugs/runs fine.

#include "utils/uartstdio.h"

#include "inc/hw_types.h"

#include "inc/hw_memmap.h"

#include "driverlib/fpu.h"

#include "driverlib/sysctl.h"

#include "driverlib/rom.h"

#include "driverlib/pin_map.h"

#include "grlib/grlib.h"

#include "drivers/cfal96x64x16.h"

#include "utils/uartstdio.h"

#include "driverlib/gpio.h"

#include "stdlib.h"

#include <stdio.h>

void main(void) {

printf("Hello World!\n");

// Some Function calls to Initialise the UART are not shown to reduce clutter

UARTStdioInit(0);

//Print out to the UART

UARTprintf("Hello world!\n");

}

HI Peter,

have you tried setting the formatting under

window->preferences->C/C++->Editor->Syntax Coloring and then on the right expand code and go to functions.

It seems the default is not to format these.

Please keep us informed.

Best Regards,
Lisa

Thank you very much Lisa, this solved the problem perfectly. The reason that printf was already formatted is that it is classified as an External SDK Call and it already has formatting applied. The other reason I was slightly confused is that I seem to remember that functions were being highlighted in the editor, but perhaps I was mistaken.

regards

Peter
