| PIC24E and write_program_memory |

Hi, im trying to use the function write_program_memory in a 24EP512GP806. But it seems that it doesnt make anything.
I have used this function on other pic16 and pic18, but never on this one.
| Code: | for(address_erase=0;address_erase<0x557ff;address_erase+=(getenv("FLASH_ERASE_SIZE")/2))
{
write_program_memory(address_erase, data, 16);
} |
This should "destroy" the pic program... but it doesnt do anything... the pic keeps running normally.
Is there anything that im missing? |

Obvious first thing, fuses?.
Second compiler version?.
Then the memory organisation is very different. Each word, is programmed as 32bits, but only holds 24bits. So you have three bytes holding data, then missing byte, then the next three etc..
The page is 1024bytes long, holding 768 bytes of useable data. |

The OP said in a PM that he solved the problem by upgrading from
compiler vs. 5.008 to 5.026. |

As I said, 'compiler version'?.
5.008, is very much a 'beta' version, so not surprised.... |

The "...("FLASH_ERASE_SIZE")/2" does not look right at all for this class of PIC.

| Agreed, but it would still give the 'crash' expected from this code.... |
