Error in Building the code... Help me Please....

[Ram Prasadh]

Hi

I am presently on a project regarding spi in pic16f72. I get a problem when I build this codeIt states like

"Error [1091] C:\Program Files\HI-TECH Software\PICC\9.71a\sources\float.c; 86. main function "_main" not defined".

My code is below and I have also given the output window. Please help me with this Problem.



#include<htc.h>
void spi();
void delay();
typedef unsigned int word;
word __at 0x2007 CONFIG = _HS_OSC & _WDT_OFF & _PWRTE_OFF & _CP_OFF & _BODEN_ON;
#define SS PORTAbits.RA5//slave select bit is assigned to porta 5th pin


void main(void)
{
ADCON1=0x06;//configured as digital and not analog
TRISA=0;
TRISC=0;
TRISCbits.TRISC4=1;// SDI is made as an input,SCK,SDO are output
spi();
}
while(1)
{

void spi()
{

/*_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ SSP CONFIGIRATION_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ */

SSPCON=0b00110001;
SSPSTAT=0b10000000;
SS=0x00;
WREG=0x23;
SSPBUF=WREG;
while(BF=0x00);
PORTB=SSPBUF;
SS=1;
}
}









my output comes like this:

copy these 3 lines
void spi();
void delay();
typedef unsigned int word;


just before the main () ............. not after # include

why you have out spi() in a while loop??? even after removing errors i doubt if it would work?????????

in SPI the while loop is to wait to complete the transmission (initialized with SSPBUF=WREG). Normally it should work despite that there is no timeout. But I agree with you - such code will tend to create deadlocks if something is not OK (for example in this case if the SPI was not switched ON).

In my opinion the brace before while() is incorrectly set. First fix this and then continue - see attached PDF

please correct your parenthesis....
what is while(1) doing in between main and spi function...
always use indentation in your code it makes it easier to understand specially help in dealing with the parenthesis.....
