Compilation Error C32

Hi,
I get the following error when I im compiling my project.
CPP eecfg.c

I am using c32 compiler ver. 1.41. and im trying to compile code for PIC32MX795F512L on an EXPLORE16 board. I am also using the latest version of ERIKA

Hi,

This is quite strange as the error you reported seems to be in one of the internal files distributed with the c32 compiler.

Does the PIC32 examples we distribute compile as is on your machine?

Yes, I tried the examples and they compile and work fine.

[paolo.gai]

So it means there is something strange in the eecfg.h.

Did you use reserved keywords as names for tasks, resources, .... ? they may end up in #defines making problems in the include file later on...

Is count a reserved word? I had used count as the name for the Counter but I have changed it to another name and it compiles fine now.
Thanks.

[paolo.gai]

It should not be a reserved word of the C language.

but note that names in OIL are translated to #defines. if you had another "count" in one of the files then it would have been substituted with a number... then the problem...
