GX IEC Compilation differences 5.02 <-> 6.01


Recommended Posts

hello, I knew the compiler had changed between version 5.02 and 6.00, but just today i found out what the big difference is and i thought i should share this with you guys. The have changed the concept of the enable of the function blocks. In version 5.02 if the block wasnt enabled the output of the function was always 0 or False. In Version 6.01 if the block isnt enabled the last output is kept. These differences can have a big influence on the execution of your program. A whole piece of our standard programming is affected by this. There is one solution for this, in the "Extras - Options" under "Project options - Code generation" you can set the code generation to 5.02 mode. Now we only can hope that they will leave this option in future versions. Does anyone know if there are other changes in the compiler that will make the program behave differently ?? Greetz, Jimbo
