MPLAB X is still in Beta and as I understand it you need a special beta release of the CCS compiler to make them work together. More info in this thread.

Tried V 7.12
CCS is not working
invalid option out="dist/default/production"
to bad we cannot use this program mplab X with CCS
lets see in 2 months if this is solved

What is the version of your CCS compiler?

I am using PCM 4.121 and it works for me, just make sure that your
file and project names do not have spaces.

Hi,

thank you for comment.
Version is 4.3.0.220
filename should be fine.

Well the other guy said it worked with vs. 4.121, so your version may
be too early for it to work successfully.

Vs. 4.093 came out in May of 2009, and 4.121 came out two years later
in May 2011.

I have been using it with both 4.124 and 4.130 without much issue. The biggest gripe is sometimes it cannot locate the device files anymore and you have to manually add the device directory to the "include directories" section of your project options. Aside from that, it annoys me that it highlights CCS functions as warnings, but I can understand that since they aren't actually functions and aren't declared or defined in most cases.

The simulator is also starting to come around. It can't fully handle table based instructions, but can do simple stuff so far. Just bear in mind that it isn't 100% like real hardware.
