CCS Debugger with Microchip ICD2

[vleiswal]

I need help in using a Microchip ICD 2 (on USB) from the CCS compiler front end.

What s/w do I need?

It keeps telling me the h/w NOT FOUND.

Thanx

If you have the Microchip ICD2, you should use MPLAB software.
The latest version is v6.60. Download it from the Microchip website.

Thanks...... it is working fine in MPLab, however, would like to get it working in CCS also.

Is it possible?

It is possible to install CCS compiler to work with MPLAB. Get the plugin from CCS's site under their downloads.

MPLab and CCS working fine!!! Driver loaded and using debugger in MPLab

However, would like to use CCS debugger with MPLab ICD 2. Is this possible?

Thanx

Thanxs Mark!!

Perhaps CCS can let us know when their debugger will work with Microchip ICD2....

I also would like to know when they add support for the ICD-2.
I really don't like the MPLAB environment.
I do like the CCS environment but it's useless without support for the ICD-2.
It would also be nice if CCS would document some of the canned functions such as 'SETUP_POWER_PWM()' for the 18F2331.
I can't seem to get it to work. Keeps giving a 'comma expected' error!

Also always check the help file in the software directory. It is the manual and is usually pretty up to date.

If a get my self an ICD2 I won't be able to use it within CCS IDE, right? But will I be able to use it within MPLAB with the CCS plugin? I mean, so I can debug CCS c-code in MPLAB.
