BMAP * AppletCalender_Background = "images\background.png";
STRING * MonthYear = "April 2008";
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
PANEL * Calender =
{
bmap = AppletCalender_Background;
digits(20,20,"","Arial#15",1,0);
digits(00,40,5,"#50",1,sys_day);
digits(20,100,MonthYear,"#20",1,0);
flags = TRANSLUCENT;
}
int main ()
{
STRING * Weekdays[7];
Weekdays[1] = " Monday";
Weekdays[2] = " Tuesday";
Weekdays[3] = "Wednesday";
Weekdays[4] = "Thursday";
Weekdays[5] = " Friday";
Weekdays[6] = "Saturday";
Weekdays[7] = " Sunday";
STRING * Months[12];
Months[1] = " January ";
Months[2] = " February ";
Months[3] = " March ";
Months[4] = " April ";
Months[5] = " May ";
Months[6] = " June ";
Months[7] = " July ";
Months[8] = " August ";
Months[9] = "September ";
Months[10] = " October ";
Months[11] = " November ";
Months[12] = " December ";
STRING * Year = " ";
str_for_num(Year,sys_year);
error(Weekdays[sys_dow]);
pan_setstring(Calender,1,20,20,"#15b",Weekdays[sys_dow]);
set(Calender,SHOW);
STRING * MonthYear = str_cat((Months[sys_month]),Year);
}
There's the code. I encounter 2 invalid arguments.The error(msg) show the string that I expect(Sunday).But one Invalid Argument is from pan_setstring and one more is by the last statement of the function. What's possibly wrong here?? Thanks

You shouldn't assign character arrays to STRING pointers.
char* != STRING* !
Please read the manual section concerning strings.
Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

Please read the manual section concerning strings. I have gone through the manual. And I changed all STRING * to char *. I don't get any "Invalid Arguments" but as soon as I start a Windows Dialog Box pops up saying "acknex.exe has stopped working....". The error is in the line "set(Calender,SHOW);". (Tested, When I remove it everything goes fine)

I added a str_create while providing pan_setstring.Compiles well. If I "set(Calender,SHOW)" it crashes ,I get a Windows Message "acknex.exe has stopped working" Current Code:
BMAP * AppletCalender_Background = "images\background.png";
STRING * MonthYear = "April 2008";
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
PANEL * Calender =
{
bmap = AppletCalender_Background;
digits(20,20,"ABC","Arial#15",1,0);
digits(00,40,5,"#50",1,sys_day);
digits(20,100,MonthYear,"#20",1,0);
flags = TRANSLUCENT;
}
int main ()
{
char * Weekdays[7];
Weekdays[1] = " Monday";
Weekdays[2] = " Tuesday";
Weekdays[3] = "Wednesday";
Weekdays[4] = "Thursday";
Weekdays[5] = " Friday";
Weekdays[6] = "Saturday";
Weekdays[7] = " Sunday";
char * Months[12];
Months[1] = " January ";
Months[2] = " February ";
Months[3] = " March ";
Months[4] = " April ";
Months[5] = " May ";
Months[6] = " June ";
Months[7] = " July ";
Months[8] = " August ";
Months[9] = "September ";
Months[10] = " October ";
Months[11] = " November ";
Months[12] = " December ";
STRING *
STRING * Year = " ";
str_for_num(Year,sys_year);
error(Weekdays[sys_dow]);
// pan_setstring(Calender,1,20,20,"#15b",str_create(Weekdays[sys_dow]));
set(Calender,SHOW);
STRING * MonthYear = str_cat(str_create(Months[sys_month]),Year);
}
Thanks

//pan_setstring(Calender,1,20,20,"#15b",str_create(Weekdays[sys_dow]));
pan_setstring(Calender,1,20,20,font_create("Arial#15b"),str_create(Weekdays[sys_dow]));

In the manual, when you create an element in a panel : font : TrueType or bitmap character set for the display. Either a predefined FONT, or A6.6 a font filename or Truetype font name with size and style (like "Arial#24bi") can be given. If '*' ist given, the engine standard font is used. with pan_set : font : FONT *
