C Compiler
PostPosted: Tue Nov 30, 2004 7:47 am     Reply with quote
I'm doing a project with the MPLAB ICE emulator and IDE. I would like to have a C environment. Can anyone help me out with the difference between the plain C compiler, and the full blown Windows IDE? There is a difference of like $300 between them. Thanks

If you are using the MPLAB IDE then you really don't need the "full blown" version. MPLAB works just fine for me.

Thats what I wanted to hear...thanks. I'm about ready to buy the compiler...do you happen to know anything about emulation migration from a PIC18C device to a PIC18F device? I have a PCM18XAO processor module on my emulator which I originally bought to emulate a PIC18C452. I now want to develop for a PIC18F452. The only difference is that the F is a flash device instead of OTP right? So I can still fully develope my application code for the F part with my current emulator module?

The 18F242/252/442/452 uses the PCM18XC1 module (unless they reved it). In any event, it is definitely different than the module for the 18C's. If your not writing to the internal eeprom or flash, then you could develop it as an 18C and after you have it working just change the header file to the 18F and recompile.
