(NOTE: this may not be a specifically Lattice C problem).
I want to time some calculations to the nearest second rather than
to the nearest 2 seconds (which seems to be the resolution of all
the library time routines).
I used vex_timr() (spelling?) and a trivial rewrite of the example given in
the Lattice C manual to update a global variable every second, but when I
ran it I got "Stack space exhausted - program aborted - 3 (usually) bombs"
message.
** The same thing happened when I typed the example program in verbatim **
I've tried changing a few "int"s to "short"s (since the Compute! Tech. Ref.
Guide seems to contradict the Lattice C manual), with no joy. Be warned
that I am a GEM neophyte.
Can anyone help? I'm using Lattice C v.5.06.02 on an old 1040STF with TOS1.0.
Many Thanks.
