hello, :$
Plz help me again
I made blocks using "NXT 2.0 Programming";
and I want to call them in NXC ? what's the code for it ?and what are some examples ?

You can't, the two programming environments do not work together.
Just re-write it what you want to do in NXC.

It is actually sort of possible to use NXT-G blocks in NXC but probably not in the way that you desire. You can decompile the RXE produced by a simple NXT-G program that uses your desired block and then wrap the resulting NBC assembly language code, with some (perhaps a lot of) manual editing, in an NXC "asm" block. I know Ron McRae has done things like this before. It is non-trivial but can in some cases be a worthwhile project.

that's very helpful .. though I don't know how to do it I'm not very good with compiling and seems like it will need effort and time :""(

You'll need the
RXEDumper utility.
Using
this tool (put it in
[LEGO MINDSTORMS directory]\engine\project\
and use it through the Tools menu in NXT-G),
download the RXE to your computer, and then run it through RXEDumper. You'll be rewarded with some confusing NBC code.
To use the NBC assembly code in NXC, wrap in an
asm
statement.
More about asm...
Code: Select all
asm {
one or more lines of NBC assembly language
}
However, you may find it easier just to look at what the NXT-G code does, and try to convert that into NXC statements.

Yup, that's what I did.
Understanding the steps to take s the hardest part, re-writing the code in a different language is relatively easy.

is it possible to do the opposite ?
to Make NXC blocks and use them in NXT-G?

I don't think so, apart from NXT-G, the only way is to use Labview (a free version is available just for this purpose).

I'll use Labview for my project next
thanks for always helping :]
