more on using .h and assembly

                +1  1594     extern bit  GBinitDn    ; // this bit is set when initialize is done
*** _____________________________________^
*** ERROR #A50 IN 1594 (msdefs.h, LINE 89): BIT-ADDRESS EXPECTED

Is there a way around this one? By the way the address is a bit address.

as you may have guessed I am in the process of consolidating the defines for a mixed project

The assembler isn't supposed to recognize C-style variable declarations, AFAICS. So you'll have to (ab)use the prepocessor, like this:

#if C_SOURCE # define BIT_DEC(name) extern bit name; #elif ASM_SOURCE # define BIT_DEC(name) EXTRN BIT (name) #else # error What?? #endif VAR_DEC(bit, GBinitDn)

well it recognizes
extern unsugned char

why not

extern bit

also
BIT-ADDRESS EXPECTED
does not indicate it has a problem with
extern bit
