bootloader with ccs

[iyobor]

Hi Guys
Could someone clear the air on what i have to add to my c program to use a bootloader.
with picbasic i just add DEFINE LOADER_USED 1 to the begining of the program and the bootloader software knows that command.

Is the command below correct for 16f877?
#org 0x1F00, 0x1FFF void loader16F877(void) {}

What is used for 18f452 ?

I'm not quite sure what you're asking.
Are you asking where to find a bootloader ?

If so, here is one.
http://www.microchipc.com/PIC18bootload/

There is Microchip's bootloader here:
http://www.microchip.com/1010/suppdoc/appnote/all/an851/index.htm

There is one here that they call CodeLoader:
http://www.thebytefactory.com/

And this one:

----------------------------
Or, are you asking how to tell the CCS compiler to reserve ROM
space for the bootloader ?

If the bootloader is a small one, that takes up the first 512 bytes
of ROM in an 18F series PIC, then this link has the CCS code which
will reserve that ROM space:

How to Relocate User Code
CCS
Add the following directives in you .c file:

#build(reset=0x200)
#build(interrupt=0x208)
#org 0x0000,0x01ff
void bootloader() {
#asm
nop
#endasm
} // Reserve space for the bootloader

Thanks PCM
This is what i was looking for
