Simple Code not working?

Xetar

In the following code, the variable: "long[pValue]" never changes from zero. I'm assigning it a value from my LTC1298 with this line "long[pValue] := gblAD1.GetADC(0)"

I have verified that the cog is working, if you look you will see a line commented out that just increments the value. This works an the value goes up accordingly. However when I replace it with the call to my A2D chip, all i get is 0.

If I move the A2D chip code to my primary cog, I see the value just fine. Any idea what i'm doing wrong here?



CON
_clkmode = xtal1 + pll16x
_xinfreq = 5_000_000

VAR
LONG gblA2D_Cog
LONG SqStack[20]

obj
gblAD1 : "CD_LTC1298" 'A2D driver


PUB StartProcess(pValue)

gblA2D_Cog := cognew(Process(pValue), @SqStack)


PUB Process(pValue)

' Initialize the A2D driver
gblAD1.start(0)


repeat
' Get the A2D reading
' long[pValue]++
long[pValue] := gblAD1.GetADC(0)

Waitcnt((clkfreq / 10) + cnt)


PUB StopProcess

if gblA2D_Cog
cogstop(gblA2D_Cog~ - 1)

Xetar - I tried this and it seems you need to increase your SqStack amount a bit then it works. You can archive your whole code to post here in the file menu in the propeller tool.

I may be wrong but I believe that "long" is a reserved word in spin and cannot be used as a variable.

Thanks that did the trick. And I'll try the archive thing next time.
