NEW and old CCS compiler

[Ttelmah]

It's actually the sort of crutch that has a polished metal tip, so if you start using it, on hard surfaces, you will slip.....
I think in general it takes longer to generate a project with it, than without it.

PCM programmer, Ttelmah and temtronic, thanks for the answers and time spent.
I understand all you have written, I will make a few "experiments" to implement your advice's then decide what to buy.
I am using 16F648A and want to move to 16F1847
and from 18F2520 to 18F26K22, moved successfully in the past from 16F876 to 18F2520.
I am using usually the code/compile/tested codes (as temtronic) I made in the past. Will have to work on the two new chips to get there.

Best wishes
Joe

Hi

Downloaded the 45 Demo CCS V5.056
Installed in CCSDemo folder under program files.
Used the CCS wizard to make a project with 16F1847
Used MPLAB wizard to make a new MPLAB project including the .c and .h
from CCS wizard
If want to compile, starting again CCS installation.
What I am doing wrong?

Best wishes

Well, if you're running MPLAB vs. 8.92 or something similar (not MPLAB X)
you should be able to go to the Project / Select Language Toolsuite menu
and the Project / Select Language Tool Locations, and make sure
everything is correct.

If upon compiling you get the installer, I'd suggest that you probably
have the executable (in Select Language Tool Locations) set to the
installer instead of the compiler.

Thank you PCM programmer
Like always you are right

After one month with the demo compiler I get to conclusion that I don't need the V3.249
The CCS PCM C Compiler, Version 5.056d, 1 compiles my old programs.
I also got to conclusion that the Wizard giving sometimes wrong selections (port A pull-ups on 16F1847 for example) so maybe better to make the initialization alone based on the data sheet and the devices headers.

Thank for all who helped me in the subject
