[Flashforth-devel] Question to PortB

[Thomas B. <bus...@gm...>]

Hallo,

Im a little bit confused about a very simple function. In the ff-tutorial
(flash a LED) the PortB RB0 is set to an output with:

$ff93 constant trisb
1 trisb mclr

thats the bitmask 0000 0001 , but if I look in the datasheet of my
PIC18F2620:

Setting a TRISB bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTB
pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in
a high-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISB bit (= 0)
will make the corresponding PORTB pin an output

Thats confusing me, especially because the forth-program works. What is
wrong in my mind?

Bye Thomas
