C30 PIC Compiler won't compile (MPLAB-X IDE)

I am trying to compile a very simple program, I dont understand why it doesn't compile. Here is my program:

/* General includes */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <libpic30.h>
#include <p33FJ128GP804.h>

#include "RunLengthAlgorithm.h"
//#include "RunLengthAlgorithm.c"

int main(void) {

    int n;
    char source[10001];
    char target[100];

    for(n = 0; n < 1000; ++n){
        source[n] = "A";
    }
    for(n = 1000; n < 2000; ++n){
        source[n] = "B";
    }
    for(n = 2000; n < 3000; ++n){
        source[n] = "C";
    }
    for(n = 3000; n < 4000; ++n){
        source[n] = "D";
    }
    for(n = 4000; n < 5000; ++n){
        source[n] = "E";
    }
    for(n = 5000; n < 6000; ++n){
        source[n] = "F";
    }
    for(n = 6000; n < 7000; ++n){
        source[n] = "G";
    }
    for(n = 7000; n < 8000; ++n){
        source[n] = "H";
    }
    for(n = 8000; n < 9000; ++n){
        source[n] = "I";
    }
    for(n = 9000; n < 10000; ++n){
        source[n] = "J";
    }
    source[10001] = '\0';

    RLEncode(&source, &target);

    while(1);
    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);

}

The .h and .c files are added to project.

#ifndef RUNLENGTHALGORITHM_H
#define RUNLENGTHALGORITHM_H

void RLEncode (char *source, char *target);

#endif

And the .c file:

#ifndef RUNLENGTHALGORITHM_C
#define RUNLENGTHALGORITHM_C
void RLEncode (char *source, char *target){
    int n, k = 0;
    for(n = 0; source[n] != '\0'; ++n){
        int length = 1;
        while(source[n+1] != '\0' && source[n] == source[n+1]){
            ++length; ++n;
        }
        target[k++] = length;
        target[k++] = source[n];
    }
    source[n] = '\0';
}

#endif

I am using MPLAB-X IDE whith C30 compiler and it gives me this error:

I don't understand why, if I put my function inside Main.c and I dont't include #include "RunLengthAlgorithm.h" it works but I cannot get it working including a file.

Solution

  • Ok there is no problem whit the code. It seems to be a bug of MPLAB-X v1.10.

    Solution: close MPLAB-X and open it again it will compile fine, if it doesn't work read on http://www.microchip.com/forums/m627705.aspx.
