Hi Group:

I'm using PCWH version 5.021 and I'm unable to compile a simple program.

The Build Output window flags the follow when i attempt to ompile:

Clean: Deleting intermediary and output files.
Clean Warning: File "J:\AAA_PROJECTS\Dantherm New AC Controller\C Code\lcd.o" doesn't exist.
Clean: Deleted file "J:\AAA_PROJECTS\Dantherm New AC Controller\C Code\lcd.ERR".

1 Errors, 0 Warnings.

Skipping link step. Not all sources built successfully.
BUILD FAILED: Tue Aug 02 10:20:24 2016

The error occurs in the 18F67J60.h file at the the line:

#device PIC18F67J60.h

Does anyone see something I don't? Why is an 18F67J60 an unknown device?

I've had a terrible time since CCS sent me a new devices5.dat. Could this be the problem?

Regards and thanks

first guess would be that that version of the compiler is older than the PIC type.
I'm thinking you should be able to go to CCSs website and find a compiler version vs PIC type chart ?

I'll confirm that, however, I did re-install 5.021 and the issue resolved. A few months back I asked CCS to amend the devices5.dat files because there wwas a mistake in pin assignments for an unrelated controller. They did so and the file they produced was somehow corrupted, Just a guess, however.

Thanks so much temtronic for your interest.

in your code drop the pic in pic18f just #include <18f67j60>

drolleman, Ttelmah:

Thank you for your replies. I'm probably going to renew my subscription soon and that might fix a lot of issues I've been having. I did reinstall the IDE/PCWH and it resolved the header file issue.

Thanks again and best regards!
