MikroElektronika
293
Parameters
Returns - Number of the start sector for the newly created swap le, if there was enough free space on CF
card to create le of required size.
- 0 - otherwise.
Requires CF card and CF library must be initialized for le operations. See Cf_Fat_Init.
Example
‘ Try to create a swap le with archive atribute, whose size will be at
least 1000 sectors.
‘ If it succeeds, it sends the No. of start sector over UART
dim size as longword
...
size = Cf_Fat_Get_Swap_File(1000, “mikroE.txt”, 0x20)
if (size <> 0) then
UART1_Write(0xAA)
UART1_Write(Lo(size))
UART1_Write(Hi(size))
UART1_Write(Higher(size))
UART1_Write(Highest(size))
UART1_Write(0xAA)
end if
