Code missing in .LST file

[Thomas Hartmann]

Hello all,

I am missing code ( functions ) in my list file.
I can not set break points in these functions when debugging with MPLAB 5.70.40 and MPLAB-ICD.
Nonetheless the missing functions are somehow executed because I toggle an output there. I can see the LED blinking ...

Questions 1:
What does the compiler do with that "missing" code ?
Can I trust the compiler on that ?
Why can't I set breakpoints ?

Also I see some "funny" behaviour within these functions:
- I call another function read_eeprom( LENGTH_1 )
@ #define LENGTH_1 8
=> inside the function read_eeprom the parameter reads 2, not 8
- I call set_adc_channel( CHAN_MV )
@ #define CHAN_MV 1
=> ADC 0 is read, not ADC 1, as expected

I replaced the defines with hard coded numbers ( read_eeprom( 8 ) and set_adc_channel( 1 ) ) and all works fine.

Questions 2:
Did anyone experience a similar bahviour ?
Why does the compiler sometimes mess up defines ?

Tnx for your replies

:-)
Thomas


Example code from the .LST file:
---------------------------------------------
0000 07453 .................... if( n1ExecuteMeasurement )
0CE0 1F3C 07454 BTFSS 3C.6
0CE1 2CE5 07455 GOTO 4E5
0000 07456 .................... {
0000 07457 .................... n1ExecuteMeasurement = 0;
0CE2 133C 07458 BCF 3C.6
0000 07459 ....................
0000 07460 .................... measureTemp();
0CE3 2A58 07461 GOTO 258
0000 07462 .................... measureMv();
0CE4 2AB5 07463 GOTO 2B5
0000 07464 ....................
-------------------------------------------------

From my .h-File:
--------------------------------------------
#separate void measureTemp(void);
#separate void measureMv(void); --------------------------------------------

From the tree:

Seems that your functions are compiled as INLINE regardless of your #separate directive.
Try to separate the compiler directive from function definition:
#separate
void measureTemp(void);

Instead of "#separate void measureTemp(void);"
