Problem generating coff files
PostPosted: Tue Feb 17, 2009 12:22 pm     Reply with quote

Hey
I have a problem with generating cof files. When I build the code using CCS in mplab, the build succeeds and it notifies me that the cof file has been saved in the folder specified. But the file isn't there.

Can somebody please help.

It should be there.

1. Post your CCS compiler version.
2. Post your MPLAB version.
3. Post your PIC.
3. Post a small test program that you're compiling to show the problem.

Here is an example of a small test program:
Code:

#include <16F877.H>
#fuses XT, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, BROWNOUT, PUT, NOLVP
#use delay(clock = 4000000)

//===================================
void main()


while(1)
  {
   output_high(PIN_B0);   // Blink LED on pin B0
   delay_ms(500);
   output_low(PIN_B0);
   delay_ms(500);
  }

}

Theres nothing wrong with the code because I've generated the exact same code before and it worked fine.

But I reloaded windows today, and reinstalled all my software and since then I can't see any coff or hex files that I've loaded before as well.

This is what the output says:

But the coff and hex files are not in that specified folder.

Your whole problem is then a re-installation problem. Something didn't
work correctly during that process. I notice you're using a "G" drive
and a "C" drive. That's probably part of the problem. I can't really
help too much more. My advice is to return everything to a baseline
installation, which is: All files on the C drive, in the c:\Program Files\Picc
directory and sub-directories.

Thanx alot,i solved it. Was a silly problem really....Windows was automatically giving the same file extension to different types of files.It was telling me that everything was a C object file.So I had to manually assign file types.

Thanx
