Hi,
I have a problem with Bricxcc. I am running it on my HP Mini Windows 7 Starter. It has 1 GB of RAM and about a 1.67 GHz processor.
I get this problem when opening certain files and opening too many files.
This is what the error reads:
Access violation at address 0040CFD7 in module 'BricxCC.exe'. Read of address 74747542.
Please help me with this.
Thanks, and have a nice day,
nxtboy III

I suspect BricxCC tried to allocate some memory, failed, tried to access memory that it didn't own, and then DEP kicked in to shut BricxCC down. Add some more Page File, or RAM, or something. Just don't open too many files. (If you want to do that, you can always use Notepad++.
)

Easy to do: turn MDI mode off by default, because tabs are better:

Why, would you prefer tabbed? Don't you like
Opera,
MS Word, and
SpiderWEB?

[12:39] <timpattinson> One tip: in the General tab of the settings, turn of MDI mode, so you can have tabs for files
[12:41] <mattallen37> Oh, as far as MDI mode, it doesn't work with NQC, FYI
[12:41] <mattallen37> it causes BCC to crash
[12:41] <mattallen37> I mean, the tabbed mode
Fix the crash, then turn it on by default

Unplugging one brick from USB and plugging a different brick to the same USB port lets Brickcxcc not activate the "Find Brick" function.
Screen polling by NXT screen of a running program on the new brick is not possible.
On the other hand: if stopping the running program (BtnEscape) and dowwnload+run by the compiler (ctrl+F5) the brick is recognized nevertheless!
Only if stopping the BricxCC and restarting it then the new attached brick is found and screen polling by NXT screen of the running program is possible again.
So it should be possible to reactivate the "find brick" function in any case.

Not 100% accurate. If you switch the USB cable to another brick, you can click the "Close communication" button, then "Find brick" again. You don't need to download a program or restart BCC.
I do agree however, that it is a bit annoying.

I would like the
BricxCC\Default\nxc_api.txt file to be in the following format (with examples below):
Code: Select all
type func_name(type params)
unsigned int ArrayLen(variant data[])
char TextOut(int x, int y, string str, unsigned long options = DRAW_OPT_NORMAL)
If there's already a file which lists the API functions and specifies their type, please tell me.
This would make my Notepad++ experience better. (More on that in my blog... soon.)

Slightly OT, but an easy fix (I think): Could you put NXTDefs.h in the NXC API documentation? (I know it's in the NBC documentation, but it'd be nice to have it in the NXC docs, too.)

- The ability to debug across multiple source files.
(If my code is in another source file, I can't F11 to the line.)
- Breakpoints.
- BricxCC project files.
- A linker. (For the compiler.)

Little error in NBC Help docs. Go
here. Now click on index. See what happens?
Same with the NBC Guide.
