Hello all,
I am building my first project with Jal. The purpose is to ignite the
lights for a sportsfield with delays. Not very difficult. I am using
Picshell 2.02 for IDE and simulation (works fine but newest version
2.10 freezes at runtime) and Jal V2.4n.
Up till now i like Jal and Picshell specially because these are open
source and there seems to be an active community supporting beginners.
In my efforts i came across two bugs (or am i doing somethin wrong?).
I have not found out where i can submit these; i have looked around
(search) and didn't find similar bugreports. So i put them here and
maybe someone can help me to submit them to the correct procedure.
First is a bug with word table variables. In the following code:
var byte index
var word table[4] = {0,0,0,0}
index = 0
table[index] = 5
table[index] = 0
The instruction table[index] = 5 results in both bytes in memory that
make out word[0] getting a value of 0x05. Instruction table[index] = 0
results in the two bytes getting the value of the adress in memory of
the first byte of word[0] (In my case 0x27)
when i use
table[0] = 5
table[0] = 0
it works as expected.
The other bug is also with word table variables:
In the following code:
index = 0
table[index] = 1000
while table[index] != 0 loop
table[index] = table[index] - 1
end loop
table[index] never becomes 0; the high byte of table[0] will not get
below 0x01
When i use the following workaround its ok.
index = 0
table[index] = 1000
while table[index] != 0 loop
temp = table[index] - 1
table[index] = temp
end loop
So again:
1. am i doing something wrong with Jal being a newbe
2. if not can anyone concur my findings
3. point me to the proper procedure to submit these
