Hello,

I want to display a 9 digit float value with 6 digit after the point displaying on LCD

I have made de next declarations FREQ = String[10] and FT = Float.

I put the "snprintf(FCV_FREQ,10,"%9,6f",FCV_FT)" into C Code ("%9,6f" = 9 digit float value with 6 digits after point, 9 digits included with point makes 10 digits so the String array lengt wil be 10 = FREQ[10])

And write the ouput result to LCD with PrintString var = FREQ

When compile it by ARM FCv4 I get the next result;

Error returned from [arm-elf-gcc.exe]

Return code = 1

Even if I use the "sprintf" function with sprintf(FCV_FREQ,"%9,6f"FCV_FT), I get the same results.

Question: Why do I get the error "syntax error before 'FCD_LCDDisplay0_Cursor' " and what i am doing wrong ?

Hello,

Please can anyone answere my question why i get this syntax error " syntax error before 'FCD_LCDDisplay0_Cursor' " after compiling and what i'm doing wrong ?

Hello,

The sprintf() function is not a supported part of the Flowcode distribution. The alternative gcvt() function is available and is demonstrated here:

http://www.matrixmultimedia.com/mmforum ... =26&t=6168

Note: The example program was written for Flowcode V3 and includes supplementary code that is not required by V4. If you are using V4 this supplementary code should be removed.

Sean,

Thanks for comment and help
