[quote:aa1a6f51d1="albertsm"]the * is indeed to ignore the line when compiling from lib to lbx.
the reason is that unknown references are in the lib and are only known at compile time with the main program.
when conditional compilation was added, i had to add * before that as well, but at a later stage this was changed so the * are not required for the #IF. But they do not harm either.
instead of the nops you could better insert a @genus(1)[/quote:aa1a6f51d1]
Hi Mark
Thank you for your down to earth explanation. In respect to your mention of @genus(1), can you advise where I can find more detail?
I have done a global search of the internet and got this result, just to prove I'm not lazy ;)
[b:aa1a6f51d1]AVR Assembler User Guide - Atmel
www.atmel.com/Images/doc1022.pdf
The Assembler translates assembly source code into object code. ... This tutorial assumes that the AVR Assembler and all program files that come with it are.
Missing: @genus[/b:aa1a6f51d1]
I also searched the help file and in spite of this can find no mention of it anywhere. I did the same search for the text that Ian Dobson found within his help file and was never able to find that either. Am I missing some fundamental documentation?
One last point, can I assume that the glcd.lib relies solely on NOP's for timing and does not have a busy test facility?
I did read the lcd4busy note but assume it is only intended for 4 line displays.
