Never succeed in transmitting ethernet packet (in *.xc)!

[jerryXCORE]

Hi, all:

I am testing with XC-3 Board. I never succeeded in transmitting an Ethernet packet in ".xc" file, using syntax:
outPort <: packet

But I can transmit the packet in assembly file "*.s", using syntax:
out res[r0], r1

So, is it possible to do the packet transmission in ".xc" file?
Or we always need to use assembly file "*.s"?


Thanks
Jerry

Perhaps more context in terms of surrounding code w/full text would help illuminate the issue.

Thanks, below is the function I used in my project:

*I just copy codes from "sc_ethernet" at github.com/xcore

*Basic operation of my project:
-My PC send an packet to XC-3 board
-XC-3 should reply with a random preset packet
-(I am testing EtherCat packet, but the exact packet is actually not relevant)

*packet[80] and txbuf[20] are same content
- packet[]: 8-bit char array (future testing, good for EtherCat)
- txbuf[]: 32-bit int array (currently testing!!!)

*The project compiled and run OK, but:
- XC-3 received the packet
- but not packet received at PC.

You can focus on 20 line of codes between while(1) and switch (tail_byte_count):
-- Above while(1): create a packet
---After switch (tail_byte_count): CRC calculation
