Functions reentrancy
Functions reentrancy is allowed. Remember that the dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 have memory limitations that can vary
between MCUs.
Types
Basic is strictly typed language, which means that every variable and constant need to have a strictly dened type,
known at the time of compilation.
The type serves:
- to determine the correct memory allocation required,
- to interpret the bit patterns found in the object during subsequent accesses,
- in many type-checking situations, to ensure that illegal assignments are trapped.
mikroBasic PRO for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 supports many standard (predened) and user-dened data types, including
signed and unsigned integers of various sizes, arrays, strings, pointers and structures.
Type Categories
Types can be divided into:
- simple types
- arrays
- strings
- pointers
- structures
