Hi,
I use below macro #define SFRX(Sfr,Msk) (Sfr=((Sfr & (~ ((Msk)>>8)) ) |(Msk))) to simply both Set and Reset specified bits in some register.
If I write SFRX ( MyReg , 0x0100 ) this macro clears bit 0. If I write SFRX ( MyReg , 0x0002 ) this macro set bit 1. If I write SFRX ( MyReg , 0x0102 ) this macro clears bit 0 and sets bit 1 in one go whithout affecting other bits.
Now I would like to use this macro for a 32-bits system: #define SREG(Reg,Msk) (Sfr=((Sfr & (~ ((Msk)>>32)) ) |(Msk)))
Although the compiler warns that shifting is too long it works fine. (main.c(56): warning: #63-D: shift count is too large)
My question is: how do I prevent this warning to occur?
Thanks
Henk
[Ignoring whether it's a good idea or not.]
To avoid the warning you want to make sure the type you are shifting (Msk) is 64-bit.
To use 32-bit Sfr and 64-bit Msk I think you want something like:
#define SFRX(Sfr,Msk) (Sfr = \ Sfr & \ (~ (unsigned int)((unsigned long long)Msk)>>32)) | \ (unsigned int)Msk)
You can use '__int64' instead of 'long long' if you're using a strict mode that disallows 'long long'.
[By the way, it's not the preprocessor that is doing the math.]
