Thread: write a function that returns true

Code:

static void sramDbgParse(void)
{
    if (SRCopy.flag == 0x5c) {
	printf("\r\nWatchdog flag seen.  Prev pc/lr/prc_cur: ");
	printf(Copy.last_pc);
	printf(Copy.last_lr);
	printf(Copy.last_prc);
	printf("\r\n");
    }
}

if flag 0x5c is met, return true

.. is that a question?

edit - I'm just going to say this before this thread turns into the same thing as your first thread: Give us all the details of what you're trying to do, and then ask a very specific question.

And more specifically, how do you propose to return anything from a void function with a void parameter list?

how do you propose to return anything from a void function with a void parameter list?

Judging by the global variable that's in there, my best bet is they just need to add this line to the end and change the return type:

Code:

return SRCopy.flag == 0x5c;

I think that was my point.

(Or alternatively, there may be something other part of SRCopy that needs to be set to true, I suppose, but I have no idea what it could be, because I don't know what SRCopy is, which was your point.)

my question is valid as in:
- the function above is called by in another module and works fine so, don't get all caught up with that.

Question was:
-- write a new function that would check the validity of 0x5C and return true if it's flagged as set or not set

if it's set the I would use the new return function to log a counter in memory

hope that is clear

So then do that. What's the problem? (After all, if you've got C99, you've got "true" and "false" already.)

You already check if that's set... why don't you just return the outcome of that expression? It seriously can't be any simpler...
