Thank you.

OK..., but what was the result when you ran it on the NXT? I meant a NXTScreen Screenshot(s).

[muntoo]

Could someone please run the Attached .rxe files and provide NXT screenshots of what's displayed on the screen? Or at least say what appears? (Is it blank, does it give a runtime "Error!" (which kind?), or are there specific numbers, what are they, where are they, are they "random", etc.)

Thanks!

On my NXT (efw 1.31, build 2712101703) it still says Deleting memory. I took some videos using NXTScreen and uploaded them anyway in case I'm missing something

Thanks, I'm taking a look at the NBC code generated right now... (Perhaps get John Hansen to fix the bug [in the compiler!!!].)

P.S. 7-Zip rocks, but you're bound to get such a high compression ratio if you use AVI. Try MP4, H264, and others...

While I'm examining the NBC Code Listing (and doing my homework... I should get started), what does the attached .rxe do? This time, it should display at least 4 numbers.

Found some the bugs* (in my code ). (There may be more...)

Try this.

It MUST display something... anything!

* They were in MM-Demo.nxc... They were from when I wasn't sure how to implement the program, so I just put some code to help me decide how it should look like. Mind you, the new code isn't pretty (I will fix it later), but it should get the job done. ...Even if the job is done badly.

Which bug in the compiler are you referring to here? Is it the #include problem you are having or something else?

Here's the NBC code generated by the compiler for ptr.idx++:

Code: Select all

	add __main_7qG2_ptr_7qG2_000.idx, __main_7qG2_ptr_7qG2_000.idx, __constVal1

Seems good to me.

// Report NXC Bug. Can't use "MM_ID ptr = myvar;"

I changed the code in task main to use the above construct and it compiled and generated valid code with the 1.2.1. r4. The MM_ID_CPY function also seems to generate correct code. But there is absolutely no reason to use a subroutine in this case. Just assign myvar to ptr. If that does not work correctly (i.e., mov one_struct, another_struct_of_the_same_type ) then there is a firmware defect.
