I have a pointer defined as:
Dim BitMapPtr as ^const far word
I assign it to a stored array using:
BitMapPtr = @Tyler_Head_BMP ' Tyler_Head_BMP is a stored CONST array in () Code Far
I then attempt to read a couple words from it:
__AddToFarPointer(BitMapPtr,2) ' skip one word of header
height = BitmapPtr^ ' load the word at the pointer into a local variable (size word)
Dec (Height) ' remove 1 from the #
__AddToFarPointer(BitMapPtr,2) ' move to next word used the INC command as well, same result 'Inc(BitmapPtr)
width = BitmapPtr^ ' store the Width
As you will see from the debug screenshot, once I pass Height line, the height is assigned the actual Address of the pointer, and not the value of the data at that pointer address. Yet I am using the "^" after the pointer variable. The debug watch on the Ptr shows the Data value as 168-- that is correct, so its reading the actual word in the stored array- but its not placing the data value in the variable Height-- its placing the address... Please help.
I am coming from an 18F part, so perhaps I am just missing something that should be obvious. The code works fine (with modifications on the 18F part).
I also constantly get crashes from the MikroProg when programming, usually a WriteChip Error-- not sure if its related. If I power Cycle the Fusion 7, and then resend it usually works. Takes forever to debug start given all the crashes. Not sure if this is related or not- doubt it.
Thanks for your help and thoughts?!
