Read getting errors with new version of compiler

[swsalun]

Hello,
I need help to find what is going and error.
Tried to compiled with latest compiler and getting an error
With older compiler this working fine,

Code Select Expand

Dim MyName As Byte ' Storage Data
Read MyName
Error message : Read command is not recomended for use and will be removed from later compiler version.

Then I change

Code Select Expand

Dim MyName As Byte ' Storage Data
Dim Kall As Byte   'Try Call
 Kall = LRead Bit8_Val MyName
Bit8_Val: Ldata 123
With these change compiler no more errors, and test to real hardware it doesn't working.

Please help what is changes for Read Commands Function, I look at Proton Compiler Manual in page 393 of 547, sub Flash Memory and Eeprom Commands.

Thanks,
S

Hello,
Is it an error or a warning, it looks more like a warning so will compile but is letting you know thet it will not in later versions of the compiler.

Hi

Exactly which page of the manual (I am presuming the Positron 8 bit manual) do you find the Read command?
I can't see it.

READ and DATA are legacy commands (still in PicBasicPro (PBP3.1). They haven't been a part of Proton/Positron for a long time. You might try CREAD and CDATA instead.

You might try CREAD and CDATA instead

Using CREAD/CDATA or LREAD/LDATA it looks like the compiler is inserting a bank instruction, which will screw up the data.

Code Select Expand

Device = 18F26K22
Declare Xtal = 8

Dim bVar As Byte
bVar = CRead Label
Stop
