Hello. I want to develop an application that is able to get and store 
two input values, swap from lower case to upper case only the first 
value and finally output the two stored values. E.g.: if the input 
string is "john", then the output string should be "JoHn". The 
application should get "j" from user_w_write_8_data and store it into 
my_buffer_a, swap "j" into "J", then get "o" store it into my_buffer_b, 
then output "J", then output "o". After that the application should get 
"h" from user_w_write_8_data,  swap "h" into "H", and store it into 
my_buffer_a, then get "n" store it into my_buffer_b, then output "H", 
then output "n". Basically, the application should store two characters, 
swap the first one and then output these two, store other two 
characters, swap the first one and then output these two characters etc. 
The problem of my application does not swap lower to upper characters 
that is stored into my_buffer_a. Instead of outputing "JoHn", my 
application outputs "john". It seems like that my application does not 
go into the first if statement (if (counter=0) then...), but I am asking 
to myself how it is possible that the application outputs data if does 
not go into if (counter=0) then... Any hint?

Thanks.

The code looks fine. In your previous thread you were writing into the 
FIFO instead of mem_8_data though.
