LCDout and large filesize 18F452 -> paging problem?

[mister_e]

as i said, you want to use LATD instead of PORTD. Pulsout also do more than a single PORT/LAT=x. If my memory serves me well it set the TRIS.. then do what it has to do. Hence wasting a few instruction cycle before and after... why the R-M-W behaviour don't happen.. or is reduced to a minimum.

Ok, u do have a point and that must be the issue here.. BUT..
could it be so that the LCDout-command is causing this RMW behaviour and not the other way around?
I mean without LCDout everything works fine.. o:-)
what can I do about that build-in LCDout-command?
I don't have time and energy to write my own LCDout-command..
o:-)

Ok, Now i know it is about RMW. As I put "pause 5000" right after portD.7=1 command, the led in portD.7 will light for 5seconds.

There ain't any other solution than find another port for output-like portB.1?

Ok, now it works: instead of portD.7=1 I write:

latd.7=0
latd.7=1

and now portD.7 will stay high even if LCDout is used..
BUT.. why do I have to do it that way? o:-)
