Please forward your suggestions or additions via the "comments" tab. The article is most possible not complete. All suggestions are wellcome!


2014-08-12: Added a few items: - no terminating zero in a string - "SizeOf" usage with "external" items.


2014-08-21: Added the mikroBasic examples...


2014-08-26: small addition into the "non terminating a string with zero" part...


2014-12-07 (v2.0): added a nasty one:  passing e.g. a byte as var parameter where a word parameter was expected and assigning a value to it inside the procedure.


2015-06-06: added again a nasty one: using '+' to concatenate a string passed to a function as parameter, see http://www.mikroe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=106&t=64658.Thanks Jim Keuneman!


2015-06-09: Updated the document again: added the "StrnCpy" issue and the concat (with +) issue for a var string + a const string.


2015-07-10: Added some "tips" (thanks Acko).
