Variables clashing

Hugh

Hi,

I'm pretty sure that a couple of variables are being stumbled over in hob-nailed boots by others. Other than by trial and error is there a preferred/logical way to attack this, i.e.,

• Using the prop tool is there any way to find out which variables are adjacent or are variables mapped in the order they are declared?
• Could this problem be affected by the stack space I have declared?
• Am I right in thinking that stack space is actually included in the 'free' space shown by F8? If so, it would be handy if the Prop Tool gave a 'Prop Full' warning!

Thanks
Hugh

Increase stack space and retest. You can always put a test value right after the stack space and check it for any changes

VAR   Long   stack1[32], test1, stack2[40], test2

PUB Teststackoverflow
       If test1 <> 0
          'show the error
      If test2 <> 0
         'show the error

This will show you if your stack is exceeding it's boundaries. Are your variables that are getting overrun directly following a stack?

Write the memory values in question to the terminal and verify.

Excellent suggestions.
