You've got at least two ways of approaching it.

One. Compile the AVR code, prove that it works, then reverse engineer the machine code (hex file). Not that hard, providing you know PIC assembler and have a couple of spare hours....

Two. Printout the AVR sources and then create the CCS C equivalent code. Again not that hard, probably easier than #1.

Three. Write an AVR C to CCS C 'cross-compiler'. More complicated than either 1 or 2 but if you have more than 2 or 3 AVR projects, a suitable option.

All options are based on the original AVR sources being CORRECT !!!

Something I have done in the past is to write a source translated, basicaly reads c source meant for one compiler, and spits out c source meant for another compiler.

Today what I do allot of is macros, I create macros that mimic the older c style/commands to help in porting

Just my 2 cents
