Downloading the header file using mplab x

Only trouble is, for some reason the wizard only allows me to use mpasm - it doesn't show me my compilers. If I create an ordinary empty project, I can select XC8 as the compiler. Even after creation of the library project I can't change the relevant project property to XC8 - it's not listed. Any idea where I'm going wrong? Thanks John.

They indeed should not contain code. You can look headers as a sort of blackbox principle: the headers are the outside of the box what are my connections , the source is the inside of it how does it work.

With the headers you can use the code of the source file or a library file for that matter without knowing how it exactly is put together. Compilation exists of 2 steps: compiling to an intermediate format object code and linking that format to a final image. By Avinash - July 1, pm Reply. By An - February 9, am Reply.

I note there is a new device available with more features and less expensive.

MCC is not supporting old Chips. If you are looking for a decade of progress, then look at decade newer chips. They have better cores, more memory, more peripherals, and cost less. Super Member. Hi, Device hardware support header files exist for all PIC devices , and is installed together with the compiler.

For XC8 compiler they are installed in a directory near to where compiler executable files and documentation is. For XC8 v2. Curiosity development boards, or Snap programmer cannot program this device, and PICkit 4 still have strange snags. Edit: Misreading the original message: PIC16F is a much more awkward device to use in experimentation and development. Sign up using Email and Password. Post as a guest Name.
