Functions and structure, need help :(
PostPosted: Mon Jun 15, 2020 7:19 am     Reply with quote

hello,

I'm trying to deal with structure and functions, but this time I don't understand what is wrong …

exemple code :
Code:
#include <18F66J94.h>
#device ADC=12

#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer

#use delay(clock=64MHz,crystal=16MHz,USB_FULL)

#include <usb_cdc.h>

typedef struct {
   int   value1;
   int   value2;
   int   value3;
   int   value4;
   int   value5;
   int   value6;
   int   value7;
   int   value8;
   int   value9;
   int   value10;
   int16 array1[10];
   int16 array2[10];
   int16 array3[10];
} testStructure;

void debugState(testStructure struct_loc0){
   int i;
   if(usb_cdc_carrier.dte_present){
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"\r\n");
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu1 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value1);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu2 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value2);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu3 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value3);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu4 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value4);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu5 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value5);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu6 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value6);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu7 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value7);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu8 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value8);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu9 : %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value9);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Valu10: %3u\r\n",struct_loc0.value10);
     
      for(i=0;i<10;i++)
         printf(usb_cdc_putc," %lu",struct_loc0.array1[i]);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"\r\n");
      for(i=0;i<10;i++)
         printf(usb_cdc_putc," %lu",struct_loc0.array2[i]);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"\r\n");
      for(i=0;i<10;i++)
         printf(usb_cdc_putc," %lu",struct_loc0.array3[i]);
      printf(usb_cdc_putc,"\r\n");
   }
                                 
}

void function2(testStructure struct_loc1){
  debugState(struct_loc1);
}

void function1(testStructure *struct_loc2){
   debugState(*struct_loc2);
   function2(*struct_loc2);
}


void main()
{
   setup_lcd(LCD_DISABLED);
   setup_adc_ports(sAN0 | sAN1 | sAN7, VSS_VDD);
   setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL | ADC_TAD_MUL_0);
   
   setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_64);      //262 ms overflow,  resolution 4us
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_8);        //32,7 ms overflow, resolution 0,5us
   
   disable_interrupts(INT_TIMER0);
   disable_interrupts(INT_TIMER1);
   disable_interrupts(INT_EXT);
   disable_interrupts(INT_RDA); // esp
   enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
   
   usb_init();
   usb_task();
   
   int connectedUSB = 0;
   
   testStructure struct_test =  {5,10,2,1,0,100,10,0,7,1,
                            {5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5},
                            {200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200},
                            {200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200,200}
                           };
     
   while(true){
      usb_task();
      if(usb_cdc_carrier.dte_present){
         if(connectedUSB == 0){
            connectedUSB = 1;
            printf(usb_cdc_putc,"Test\r\n");
            function1(&struct_test);
         }
      }
   }
}

but it seems I don't use strucute and pointer in the good way as i got in serial terminal :

struct_loc is a pointer, not the structure.
To access an element referenced by a pointer, you use -> not '.'.

You also need to declare your debugState function to use the pointer:

(testStructure * struct_loc){

As I don't want to modify the values in debugState, I wanted to pass the structure as parametter and not the pointer

maybe the wrong way ?

it's maybe not possible to switch from pointer to structure as I expected

I think you are misunderstanding 'dereferencing'.
You are handing the function a pointer, not the actual structure. If you do this
you should just use the pointer in the functions.
If you want to hand the physical structure to another sub function, you
need to physically extract the data from the pointer.
You don't physically have a copy of the structure in your function to pass
to the sub functions.

but why does it work the first time in
Code:
debugState(*struct_loc2);
but does not work the second time through
Code:
debugState(struct_loc1);
?

ok I think I understand,

it was random that it works sometime the first time, because compiler use the same part of memory

Yes, 'random data arrival'...
A common CCSical condition!. Very Happy

site note for you: in CCS if you want to pass a pointer to a value that you don't want to modify, you can use the _readonly flag:

Code:

void debugState(_readonly testStructure * struct_loc0)


This tells the compiler that struct_loc0 points to a location that is readonly and will prevent modifications (NOTE: older versions of the compiler have a bug that makes this not work in some scenarios, but later versions fix this bug).

In ANSI C, it would be

Code:

void debugState(const testStructure * struct_loc0)


But const has a different meaning in default CCS code.

EDIT: Example:
Code:

#include <24FJ32GA002.h>

typedef struct {
   int16 value1;
   int16 value2;
} test_t;

void debug(_readonly test_t *t){
   t->value1 = 16;
}

void main() {

   while(TRUE);
}


gives the error in v5.093:

Code:

*** Error 167 "main.c" Line 9(7,13): Assignment invalid: lvalue is READ ONLY
      1 Errors,  0 Warnings.
Build Failed.
