dspic support

Good day.

When it's planned to make ccs v4 dspic support?
Will i be able to use the same code for PIC18 and dspic?

Thank you

Howdy,

I contacted customer support a few months ago about dspic support. If I remember correctly, the support was supposed to be included in version 4. However, it has been delayed. They did not say when it will be released.

Compatibility is an interesting question. Are you talking performance or merely being able to compile? If the compiler is smart enough to optimize the code for use in the 16 bit architecture, perhaps the code might work if you change the hardware pins / definitions with a different processor. The data type definitions might be interesting if CCS mixes and matches them based on the processor. If you try to make code 'compatible', eplicitly spell out each data type in your code.

In short I have no idea, but I would recommend contacting CCS.

Cheers
