You need to add ERRORS to your #use rs232 statement.

The idea of defines is to give things meaningful names and make code more readable.
So this section of code :-
Code:
    //lcd_putc,("/f welcome to ETPL");
    //lcd_putc,("/n LCD interface");
    If(input(Pin_C4))
    {
    Printf(" Pin C4 is high\n\r");
    output_B(0);
    output_high(Pin_B4);
    //PIN_B4=1;
    }
   Else
   {
    Printf("Pin C4 is low/n/r");
     
   }

Now becomes :-
Code:
    If (input(Button))
    {
       Printf(" Pin Button is high\n\r");
       output_high(Led);
    }
    Else
    {
       Printf("Pin Button is low/n/r");
       output_low(Led);
    }

Does your complete code now work correctly?

hi my code shows error when i put as you said "Led" instead of Pin_B4 for output.

i attach my working code below.
Code:

#include <16f877a.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,BROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7,Errors)
#define Button Pin_C4 60
#define Led Pin_B4 52
#include <lcd.c>

void main()
{


lcd_init();
delay_ms(1000);
while(0);
 {
   If(input(Pin_C4))
      {
      Printf(lcd_putc,"\fPin Button is high");
      output_high(Pin_B4);
      }
   else
    {
    Printf(lcd_putc,"\fPin Button is low");
    output_low(Pin_B4);
    }
}


}

In the above code iam getting output when i put not (!) actin before input(PIN_B4),
MY requirement is whenever pin C4 goes high PIN_B4 should also,
whenever C4 is low B4 should be.

BUT now my output is not so,it checks the condition input is on,if not it is doing nothing.

Hope you understand the issue.
help me.

hmmm...

while(0);

this says NEVER do the following code...
same as
while(false);

You should have
while(TRUE);
{
//do all of this forever...
}

while(1); is the same.

also
...
#define Button Pin_C4 60
#define Led Pin_B4 52

delete the 60 and 52, not required ,might cause 'problems'.


and
...

insert

delay_ms(500);

before the
lcd_init();

This allows the LCD module time to get 'organized' BEFORE your program tries to access it.

recode/recompile/retest/report back

cheers

Strange!!!!!

My compiler does the same.

The #define for button is accepted with the extra '60' for input
The #define for led generates an error with the '52' for both input and output.

Tried a few different tests, results were not consistent.

Do as Mr T says, remove the numbers following the pin defines, and, of course, change to while(1).

      }
   else
    {
    Printf(lcd_putc,"\fPin Button is low");
   
    }
   
}


}
   


I have made changes and compiled my code as you people said,but there still is an issue no o/p is coming. My led is not switched on even after latching.

A semicolon terminates the instruction.

Code:
While(1);
{

}

Are not the same as
Code:

While(1)
{


}

you are saying that just because iam using while with semicolon,it is checking the condition once ah?
if so how can declare it for looping?

This really is basic C.

An if statement, while, etc., executes the next 'code block'.

A 'code block', is a single instruction, terminated with a ';', _or_ a group of instructions, contained in '{}' brackets.

So:
while(something) xxx;

executes 'xxx'

while(something)
{
xxx;
yyy;
zzz;
}

executes 'xxx', then 'yyy', then 'zzz', then 'xxx' etc...

while(something) ;

executes nothing (empty statement).

It is continuously checking the 'something', and looping, but the loop does nothing....

You need to get a C primer.
