I would very much appreciate if anyone could throw some light on this error, not too hot with "C" as yet.

When I try and compile the following with Keil C51, I get the following error message.

Error C208 DS1302GetAll Too many actual parameters

Seems to be line in Time() function in the following code

>Error C208 DS1302GetAll Too many actual parameters
This is how you are declaring DS1302GetAll:

void DS1302GetAll(SYSTEMTIME *Time);

This is how you are calling it:

DS1302GetAll(Second, Minute, Hour, Date, Month, Week, Year);

I'd say your error is quite right in saying that you're passing too many actual parameters, seeing as how the function expects only 1 and you're passing seven. I suspect what you intended to do was create a SYSTEMTIME object, fill it with the data you're presently passing incorrectly to the function, then pass the object itself:

SYSTEMTIME systime;

DS1302GetAll ( &systime );
sprintf (
    buf,
    " %02u/%02u/%02u% 02u:%02u",
    systime.Date,
    systime.Month,
    systime.Year,
    systime.Hour,
    systime.Minute );
lcd_puts(buf);

The declaration and definition of DS1302GetAll (awkward name, by the way) clearly shows that the SYSTEMTIME object is an output parameter. This means that the parameter is meant to be empty to begin with and the function initializes it.

Very much appreciate your advice, looks like I did not get my head round this at all. Just to clarify, is this what you meant, or have I not understood again! Obviously I will have to do a similar operation to write clock data to DS1302SetAll.

DS1302GetAll stays as is

typedef struct __SYSTEMTIME__
{
unsigned int Second;
unsigned int Minute;
unsigned int Hour; 
unsigned int Date;
unsigned int Month;
unsigned int Week; 
unsigned int Year;
}SYSTEMTIME systime; //Shows error "missing ; before systime"

DS1302GetAll (&systime);
	   	   	   	   
       sprintf (buf," %02u/%02u/%02u% 02u:%02u",systime.Date,systime.Month,systime.Year,systime.Hour,systime.Minute);lcd_puts(buf);
       printf("Date%02u/%02u/%02u\n\rTime%02u:%02u\n\r",systime.Date,systime.Month,systime.Year,systime.Hour,systime.Minute);
	   DelayMs(250);

when you call " DS1302GetAll (&systime); ", as Narue said, that function will fill all the elements of the "systime" structure with the individual time and date components.

then, in order to push this info to the LCD in a human-readable way, you need to format the elements in an organized, meaningful manner that the LCD output code understands it. that's what youre doing when you call the " sprintf(buf ... " call; it formats this time & date info into the string "buf", so that your subsequent call to " lcd_puts() " knows what to do.

one thing i'm uncertain about here, is your "printf()" command... you're programming a microcontroller, right? where exactly is this "printf()" command supposed to print it to? you shouldn't have a terminal. your output device is the LCD, and you've already sent the info to the LCD via the "lcd_puts()" function.


.

No, you're supposed to be making changes to the Time function, since that's where the error is and that's where your code is wrong. Allow me to be more hand holdey because you clearly don't get it. Change this:

void Time(void)
{
  unsigned int Second,Minute,Hour,Date,Month,Week,Year;

  DS1302Init();
  lcd_goto(0x00);

  DS1302GetAll(Second, Minute, Hour, Date, Month, Week, Year);

  sprintf (buf," %02u/%02u/%02u% 02u:%02u",Date,Month,Year,Hour,Minute);
  lcd_puts(buf);
  printf("Date%02u/%02u/%02u\n\rTime%02u:%02u\n\r",Date,Month,Year,Hour,Minute);
  DelayMs(250);
}

To this:

void Time(void)
{
  SYSTEMTIME systime;

  DS1302Init();
  lcd_goto(0x00);

  DS1302GetAll ( &systime );

  sprintf (
    buf,
    " %02u/%02u/%02u% 02u:%02u",
    systime.Date,
    systime.Month,
    systime.Year,
    systime.Hour,
    systime.Minute );

  lcd_puts(buf);

  printf(
    "Date%02u/%02u/%02u\n\rTime%02u:%02u\n\r",
    systime.Date,
    systime.Month,
    systime.Year,
    systime.Hour,
    systime.Minute);

  DelayMs(250);
}

EDIT: retracted


.

Now I get it! Should have figured this out for myself, old age and a mental block I think. Many thanks for your invaluable assistance. BTW, the other print statement is to a simulated terminal in Proteus, just for testing. Will try and get the formatting right for any future posts. Again very grateful to all.
