After a couple of weeks I've managed to go from knowing absolutely nothing about C to knowing nearly nothing. Well, maybe a little more than that.

I can pass data to a C routine and either send back a result or modify the original data and I can even toggle some pin states. What I really need to do is output data using the SPI port. The only example I have is Peter Mather's OLED CFunction and I can't seem to figure it out. What I have written so far compiles and it doesn't crash the 'Mite but it also doesn't produce any working result. Does anyone have any SPI CFuncition/CSub code they would share? I'm hoping another example (or 2) may help back on track.

Thanks,
Curtis

Success!!!

I have SPI data flowing from a CFunction! Finally traced my problem to a bad set of for loops in the function. My counters were not counting which caused the calculations to not calculate.

Curtis, I am sorry I couldn't assist with your problem but I am glad you were able to sort it out. It sounds like you have made great progress with the CFunctions and C. This is something I wish to attempt in the near future.

One thing I would suggest... Have a specific goal (program) in mind, it will help drive you forward. I think it makes things easier to understand when you can apply what you are learning directly to what you want to accomplish.
