C51: ENUM EXAMPLES

QUESTION

I tried to use the Enumeration type in C51, but it did not work. Can you give me an example that works?

ANSWER

The following enumeration example shows you how to use the enumeration type in C51. You can copy and paste this into a source file, compile it, link it, and run it with dScope to watch it run.

enum link_state {LINK_RESET, LINKING, LINKED, LINK_STATE_MAX};

void link_handler(
  enum link_state ls)
{
   unsigned char  uc_temp1;
   switch(ls)
   {
      /**** LINK_RESET State *******/
      case( LINK_RESET ):
         uc_temp1 = 1;
         break;
      /**** LINKING State**********/
      case( LINKING ):
         uc_temp1 = 2;
         break;

      /**** LINKED State ****************/
      case( LINKED ):
         uc_temp1 = 3;
         break;
   }
}


void main (void)
{
unsigned char i;

for (i = LINK_RESET; i < LINK_STATE_MAX; i++)
  link_handler (i);

while (1);
}
