Swordfish

Thanks for the reply Jerry.

May I ask why you like SF over Proton?

I'll probably ask the same over on that forum and compare the two to see if the claimed strong points match up to what I'm looking for in a compiler.

I'm currently evaluating both SF SE and Proton's Amicus to see what I want to buy. I got a GPS module in yesterday (only took Futurlec 53 days to get it to me), and I wanted to use it with a UC. The NMEA library is too big to work in SE, but I still wanted to right a program for it. If I break into ...

I tried to get the ISIS demo working per this webpage: http://www.sfcompiler.co.uk/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=SwordfishUser.ISISPlugin The plugin installed just fine. Once I copy and paste over the example code, I hit build, and select PICDEM+2 with PIC18F452. Upon the start of ISIS I get the following: "Thi...

Very cool thing you're working on there. I also think the Wiimote has a radio transmitter and an IR transmitter in it. Have you been able to decipher anything with that? Would there a way to hack the remote in such a way that you could use it as an actual control device for wireless applications dir...

Thanks for the replies guys. Sena: I want to say that I did try that and got meaningful results from it. I'm not in front of my laptop that had the code on it (actually, I spilt water on it and destroyed it), but I want to say that I tried that. 2brain: There should be a negative G. If it's 1.3 volt...

The accelero is an MMA7731 from freescale with a 1.4 volt zero g output. The ADC never goes negative. I had it working fine in an assembly program that I wrote for the PIC16F1934. I have wondered if the problem is that the ADC.Read produces an unsigned result (word variable, as 2brain indicated) and...

Can you show me where I am going wrong here?

I dim'd the variable "Xaxisvalue" as integer, and I also have the function "Xaxis" as an integer.

I'm still trying to learn the basics of the language itself, and the SF spin on it. I've got a program that displays some values on an LCD and uses timer interrupts to send those adc values via the UART. Most of everything I've done so far is just a combination of different modules, subs, and functi...

Thanks for that reply! How do I get to that? I know I can just include it, but I want to actually open it up and look at it. I have SF SE downloaded on my computer. I can see samples, but I have no idea where the directory is with all the include files. I'd like to take a look. Can you point me to h...

I'm working on some projects that require a good deal of floating point math. I am trying to move over from PIC ASM because I figured a higher level language would rid me of having to deal with the nitty gritty of this kind of thing. I haven't seen any complex math modules out there. The website ind...
