Index Out Of Bounds When Creating HEX file

Yes, I'm a newbie... Not to Pascal, just to DsPICs and the new compiler.

Since Sunday (when I bought the compiler) all I get after every compile is
"Index Out Of Bounds" when generating the Hex file. Which means I am dead in the water.

I'm certain I have not set something up correctly. Anybody have any ideas?
No, I am an ASM programmer that has a deadline, and I had to switch out of C30 to Pascal because C data typing drives me mad.

It turns out to be caused by a library procedure:

i2c1_init(100000);

I have no idea why. I guess I'll just have to roll my own initialization routine.

Can you provide some short code demonstrating your problem?

[azengineer]

All you have to do is type

i2c1_init(100000);
or
i2c2_init(100000); //spelled wrong?

in the main procedure. It will cause the error.


But I wrote my own initializer, and it seems to be working, so I don't have any problems any more.

Thanks for replying.

There is actually a known compiler bug in mikroPascal for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24. The bug is manifested when trying to use I2C1_Init or I2C_Init by error " Identifier 'SSP1ADD' was not declared" and you have probably declared SSP1ADD in your program which caused "Index Out Of Bounds" error.

We are aware of this problem and apologize for inconveniences. We are currently working on the new (PRO version) of all of our dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 compilers and as you got license for the older version of mikroPascal, you'll be able to get new mikroPascal PRO license free when we release it.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I declared it in the main program, and that was the error.

Do you have a place I csan go to to look for other minor errors when thay pop up?
