No.
Also, you don't have to start a new thread for each floating point
question. Just add a post onto your existing thread for floating point. |

Get the CCS manual here:
http://www.ccsinfo.com/downloads.php
In the section on "Basic and Special types" (page 33 in the Acrobat
reader), it says this:
Quote: | float: Defines a 32 bit floating point number |
That's the only one that CCS supports. |

CCS isn't MPLAB. CCS doesn't support 24 bit floating point. Understand now? |

CCS CAN be used IN MPLAB but CCS is NOT Microchip any more than Hitech is Microchip. MPLAB allows the use of a number of different compilers and each one has it's limitations. MPLAB is simply a development environment and CANNOT change the compiler limitations regardless of what you may see in MPLAB. If you like the options in HiTech then pay a LOT more money and go use HiTech.
Bottom line...the CCS compiler WILL NOT HANDLE 24 bits regardless of how or where it is used. The current CCS manual gives all the available data capabilities. There are no others! How many people here have to tell you that?
Also, It would also be appreciated if you would spel out yr wds whn you uz this bd. This is not a teenage chat room.....it is a software compiler user support forum used by many international users that may not understand your slang....Dude. |
