| All sorts of Errors using CCS with MPLabX |
 Posted: Tue Jul 14, 2020 9:53 am |

Hi all,
Trying to use the CCS compiler to build some PIC firmwares. Have installed the compiler, set MPLab to use the compiler for my project, and successfully built a couple of the example firmwares which come with the compiler.
Problem is whenever I try to use it to program a pre-existing firmware, it detects hundreds of errors (not the little simple errors, either) all over the code. This is very strange as I have used a colleagues' computer to build these firmwares without difficulty. We're using the same version of compiler and MPLabX. I can't find different settings anywhere. We should be running identical compilers on identical code in identical IDEs. But mine doesn't compile.
Has anyone had a difficulty like this before? Is there a common cause or somewhere particular I need to look? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Here's a sample of the errors I'm getting:

Could you please post your code?

Sorry, but it's heavily IP'd. It's also quite a big project.
I'm sure the problem is between CCS and MPLabX though, given I know this exact code compiles elsewhere. |

Then you should make a short example that blows up the same way and then post that.
Also:
We need the version of CCS and MPLABX as well as what device you're compiling for.

Some questions for you..
Did you install the CCS plug-in the MPLAB-X?
Did you configure the MPLAB-X project for the processor you are using?
Did you configure MPLAB-X to use the CCS compiler for this specific project?

Also, the 'traditional' MPLAB problem, that only the main code should
listed as a file to compile. The other .h/.c files need to be put in the 'header'
section, or omitted, otherwise MPLAB will try to compile each of the
files in turn, which will give inumerable errors.
So post the project layout you sre using (screen dump). |

| In addition to what others have said, make sure in the CCS project options inside the MPLABX interface that you set the paths to the Devices and Drivers subfolders of your CCS installation. It doesn't point to them by default. |
