Today I am finally (having been in cardboard boxes for almost 3 weeks) moving into my new office and re-installing my PC as its OS had chosen to enter a state of permanent sleep in the new location. Hooray for backups!!
Will be good to get back to some PropBasic tinkering over the next week - which might give me a good reason to bump this thread so I can easily access the latest PropBasic downloads [noparse]:)[/noparse]
I use the video driver of the demo files, which have been actual with 00.00.97a.
None of the demo files·work any more compiled with 00.1.00. There are no reported errors but there is no picture generated or visible. (I use the demo board.)
I have not discovered differences in MoniVid.spin.
Hi Bean, is there an issue where a third task ( second, if you don't include the main one ) doesn't set DIRA correctly? as in the spin file, they're coming out as 0.
The PIN modifiers (OUTPUT, LOW, HIGH) are only for the COG they are used in. Otherwise a PIN defined as HIGH would be pulled high by all cogs and would not be able to be controlled by any cog.

Bean,
The code file below is one that you wrote to help me get my Stingray going some time ago (page 14 on this form) and it worked great. I tried working with it last night and it compiled and downloaded fine, but no wheel movement. I tested the code on my RPM board this morning which has LEDs for pins 16-25 (had changed the pins to 22-25) nothing happen and then all of a sudden all the LEDs lit up from 16-25 for about a second and went off.
Knowing it had worked fine in earlier versions of PropBasic I compiled it under version .89 and it works fine. Since I hadn't worked with it for the last few updates I did some testing and found it to work up through version .99, but not version 1.00
When you have time could you please look into this.
Is IF statement with AND!OR condition working or is this a future feature? or perhaps I am not using it correctly.
I tried to use IF X>0 OR X<1 THEN etc but compiler(v1.01) reports wrong no. of paramaters used.
regards
Gerry
PS Thank you for PropBasic its a great painless way of using PASM.
Gerry, · You need to put each condition on a seperate line.
IF X > 0 OR X < 1 THEN
ENDIF
Conditions are evaluated top down, so as soon as a OR statement is true, the code is executed, as soon as a AND statement is false, the code is not executed.

It is normal that I cannot see lib-file on BST-window?
Now I see lib.file by using word pad.
There's really nothing to it: set the file filter to *.*, find your file, and double-click.

my new version of Mandelbrot does work (the video generator) with version 0.0.97a-64 but does not work any more with 0.1.00.
Can you give me a hint, please?

The major change was GETADDR was changed from a command to a function.
You'll change "GETADDR hubVar, longVar" to "longVar = GETADDR hubVar"

There is compile-error "ERROR:UNKNOWN COMMAND "GETADDR".
GETADDR form changed?
So with 00.0097a-64 Getaddr was already changed.
Other possibilities?

Yes, I think 0.0.97a was the change.

Yeah there seems to be a problem with COGSTART I'll have to investigate it.
If you make the TASK AUTO and remove the COGSTART it will work.

You can define the pin in the TASK code (you can't use the same name though), or you can just use the HIGH, LOW, etc commands.

It's probably the COGSTART issue that has just been fixed.
Give version 00.01.01 a try and see if that fixes it.
