Hello,
I guess there are two variables named "flag" being created, one in main and the 
other in ui.c. Please define the global variable in one .C file of your choice 
and tell the other file by using "extern" directive. Hope this solves your 
problem

Hello Gents,

I am having problem communicating between main.c and another
file/module, ui.c to name it.

In main.c I set a flag from a timer ISR, every 100ms. 
In ui.c I am watching for that flag, but unfortunately it always
reads zero :-/ However if I watch for the flag in main() then it works
fine.

I am watching the flag in ui.c, so I declared it in ui.h, then ui.h
gets included in main.c so I can set the flag from there. 
Well that was my reasoning, but doesn't quite work sadly !

I must be doing something wrong obviously, just would love to learn what
it is ! ;-)


Regards,

Vince, a bit stuck and wondering again...


ui.h
-----------
static volatile uint8_t flag;



ui.c
----------------

if( flag )
{
   flag = 0;
   /* Do some stuff */
}



main.c
--------
#include "ui.h"

ISR (TIMER0_COMP_vect)
{
        flag = 1;
}

main() {}
