PIC16f xc8 compiler : unknown pragma “code”, “interrupt”,“chk_isr”

Lately I've been trying to interface HC-SR04 with PIC16F877A using capture mode and interrupt but am getting "Warnings" and I've pasted the code below:

Best Answer

Even if you use MPLab IDE, the code you are writing is still C.

xC8, xc16 and xc32 The XC8, XC16 and XC32 are compilers for the PIC processors by Microchip. XC8 are used for 8bit-MCUs, XC16 for 16bit-MCUs and XC32 for 32bit-MCUs. Here you will get a clear overview about the compilers

The C18 was an old compiler for 8bit MCUs. If you just start programming PICs use the XC-equivalent :-)

Pragma warnings

I already showed you the Migration guide. For getting the warning on line 23 away write

void My_HiPrio_Int @ 0x0008 (void)

instead of

#pragma code My_HiPrio_Int=0x0008
void My_HiPrio_Int(void)

Have a clear look at page 34 for this!

The pragma statement on line 36 is not neccessary anymore, when compiling with XC8 instead of C18.

To avoid the warning in line 30 you can write

 void interrupt chk_isr(void)

instead of

 #pragma interrupt chk_isr
 void chk_isr(void)

Page 32 will help you with this ;-)

illegal pointer conversion

You try to send a const-String with the strdis()-function. Write

 void strdis(unsigned char const  *str)

to show the compiler that the pointer values won't be overwritten in the function (hope this works, i don't have XC8 compiler with we, sorry). Otherwise you can make a type conversion when calling strdis(). For example:

 strdis((unsigned char *)"Hello")

But i won't recommend this! Even if you know what you do!

Last in line 83 you write

 F_byte=(F_byte * 0.5);

Instead write the following 

 F_byte=(F_byte / 2);

When calculating with float numbers the compiler will do a type conversion by himself. So he converts F_byte to a float and then multiplies with 0.5. float-calculation is much slower than integer-calculation, so avoid this whereever possible.

If you find something like F_byte=(F_byte >> 1); anywhere in the www, you can be sure that every compiler, which is nearly up-to-date will do this code optimisation while compiling.
