@Bean, issue with word/byte modifiers

Bean,

In the attached program I have two functions
that take 4 arguments but the first arg is a word,
so they take 5 bytes.

STOAB··FUNC·1,5,word,byte,byte,byte

This generates an error.
For now I use
STOAB··FUNC·1,5 ',word,byte,byte,byte
and split the first arg, but I rather like
SXB to promote a byte to·a word
for the first arg.

regards peter
SXB
SXB
Format_INC.SXB

    Peter,
    You need to declare both the min and max parameter count. Even if it is the same.

    So "STOAB FUNC 1,5,5,WORD,BYTE,BYTE,BYTE" should work.

    Bean.

    There is a fine line between arrogance and confidence. Make sure you don't cross it...

    That doesn't work. Generates Invalid Parameter "5"

    Bean,
    I read in the What's new document that for functions the
    return type should also be specified (although this is redundant)
    so I tried

    STOAB FUNC 1,5,5,BYTE,WORD,BYTE,BYTE,BYTE

    Still getting errors.

    Bean,

    Although it works for FUNC, there is still an issue with SUB.

    dvpDAC_SetValue SUB 5,5,byte,word,word

    gives error "Invalid parameter 5"
