I'm trying to compile the following function for the PIC14 port:

void Writef( char *string) {
                
        while(*string != 0) {
                putchar(*string);
                string++;
        }       
}

Note, no printf in the PIC14 port.

I call it as:

Writef('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.\0');

I get the following error from sdcc when trying to compile:


serial-soft.c:117: error 88: illegal cast of LITERAL value to 'generic' 
pointer
from type 'literal-unsigned-char'
to type 'char generic* '

Now I've not programmed in C for quite a while, and pointers were never my 
strong point.  Can any kind sole give me a hint?

Thanks,

Pete
