Yet another compiler error

[hyperion007]

I keep getting these errors every time I try to compile to HEX in FC v6. It is version 6.0.3 and I have just installed it today so I don't know if it would have worked without the patch or not.

Any ideas?

Providing more information would help. Attaching the flowcode file would be ideal. Generated C code might help as well...

[hyperion007]

Ok, no problem.

Running Windows 7 pro x64
FC v5 works fine as usual.

Hi. The C code looks valid to me at these lines. However, there was, I recall, a bug in BoostC to do with a certain combination of 'shift' and 'and' operations causing a syntax error.

When I tried to replicate that with the latest BoostC I could not replicated it - it is possible this is some related bug.

We can have a look into this tomorrow and see what is going on.

Great, thanks!

Hello,

Fine for me too, are you using the latest patch 6.0.3?

[hyperion007]

Hi,

Yes, latest patch 6.0.3 downloaded from your site yesterday.

I am also getting errors with oled:

Also the oled component is far too big, even zooming dashboard fully out, this is what component looks like:

Expanding the dashboard make component even larger so you don't even see the pcb contacts.

Good catch! I actually overlooked the fact that all my attempts to compile a FC v6 project to HEX had the Adafruit OLED component.
So I now tried it with a regular 4x20 LCD component and it works fine. I am also having the same issue regarding the wrong size of the Adafruit OLED on the system panel.

[hyperion007]

Please let us know when the Adafruit OLED component is fixed

Thanks.

Hi.

We were looking at getting a 6.0.4 out asap, but I have had a lot of presentations and training to do in the last week. Now back on coding we will be able to get something out, hopefully by the end of next week.

We want this patch to address stability and compile issues, so this should go in.

Cheers,

Jonny

Hello,

I've found a couple of issues and think they have all been resolved now. Seems to simulate and download correctly now anyway.

Hi Ben,

So I tried the new component, but my test program AND yours still have the same problem:

Hi
Just tried Bens files and they compile to hex OK

I've attached a full set of generated files for you to try

[hyperion007]

Thanks, but even after I unpacked all your files into a new folder, opened the fcfx file in FC V6 it still didn't compile.

I don't really want to test just the the hello world message on the OLED. I do however want to replace the LCD component in some of my programs with this new OLED component but to do so I need to be able to compile my programs with this OLED component.

[Benj]

Hello,

Are you still having problems compiling? Have you updated to patch release 6.0.4?

If your still having problems then can you attach a simple test file and the compile errors that are generated and I will take a look for you.
