Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS
Hi There
I have come across an issue i'm not sure what to do with. I am using SysBios (bios_6_33_01_25). My code is simple it consists of a decrementing Uint32 delay count
to toggle an LED on an off. See Below. In debug mode I can set the delay value to 2^32 -1 and it works fine. When I change into release mode the ledDelay variable seems to behave like an Int32 and not UInt32. When I set its value greater than 2^31 the while(delay) loop is skipped and the LED is toggled on and off as no delay is present. When I set the delay value less than 2^31 the delay loop runs as expected.
Why is the declared Uint32 delay variable behaving like an Int32 variable in release mode only?
Any ideas whats going on here?
Regards
Tony

void testFcnToggleLedTask()
{
UInt32 ledDelay;
UInt32 delete;
while(1)
{
ledDelay = 2147483647;
while(ledDelay--);
delete=ledDelay;
drvrGpioSetOutPin(GPIO_BANK_2, PIN12, HIGH);
ledDelay = 2147483647;
while(ledDelay--);
delete=ledDelay;
drvrGpioSetOutPin(GPIO_BANK_2, PIN12, LOW);
}
}
