compiling demo4

[aek]

Hi Chao.

I'm not entirely clear on what you are trying to compile. Is it an existing project? Or your own project, using what's in salvodemod4sysfd4free.pjt as a guide?

Just for kicks, is there a salvo.h in salvoinc? Is there a salvoinc folder at all? What's in it?

In general, failure to find salvo.h is due only to a missing include path to salvoinc. You are finding salvocfg.h, which, in turn, includes salvo.h, so that's good.

According to the dump you've given us, -Ic:salvoinc is the right command-line switch. So I'm kinda stumped as to what's wrong.

Please post a full dump from the "Build Results" window in MPLAB when you get it installed and try to make the salvodemod4sysfd4free.pjt project.

And please make SURE that salvo is really installed in c:salvo or d:salvo or wherever.

Regards,

hi, thanks for the help. I will try to get MPLAB going tomorrow. I will let you if anything else comes up. I am sure you can't wait... LOL

later,

Somehow the compiler can't seem to find the salvoincsalvo.h !!! Here's another example:

please help, thanks

Hello.

Please uninstall Salvo and re-install it in salvo (the default), not htsoftprojectssalvo.

The problem is that you have installed salvo into c:HTSOFTprojectssalvo, but the project expects the files to be in salvo (see -Isalvoinc in the command line, for example).

Hi, salvo is installed to its default directory c:salvo. htsoftprojectssalvo is my project's directory, not salvo's installation directory. So this is not the problem. Sorry for that confusion

thanks,

Are you using MPLAB v5.50 or later?

OK, one thing I see is that you're trying to compile demod4sysh, but demod4sysh is a *** PIC16 *** project.

So, please try demod4sysf instead ... in MPLAB, open salvodemod4sysfd4free.pjt and Build All. You should get something like this:

hi, I see about the SYSH. But still it can't find salvo.h for some reason.

salvodemod4main.c: 41: Cannot open include file "salvo.h" (error)

I don't have MPLAB setup today. Do I need that to have a successful compile? If that's the case, I will have to wait til tomorrow to compile and play with it.

Thanks much,

Hello.

Your command line still has -DSYSH. It needs to be -DSYSF. Other than that I don't see anything that's obviously wrong. I assume that PICC-18 demo version supports all the command-line arguments you're passing it ...

Ah, but I know that the PICC-18 demo version doesn't really work in command-line mode! But AFAIK it works fine when invoked from MPLAB ...

You don't need MPLAB to compile the files, but you do need it to build the project (I hope the difference is clear).

Do you have Salvo installed on another drive (e.g. d:salvo)? That would cause it to fail -- you'd have to change the command-line arguments to include the drive letter.

Once you have MPLAB installed then we'll better be able to figure out what's wrong. Pls install it onto the same drive as where Salvo is installed.

I think the problem is that you have PICC-18 demo AND you're using it from the command line.

Hi, I've changed all to SYSF. I started to compile stuff with HI-TIDE (beta2) and it said
'Cannot open include file "salvo.h"' in ErrorList.

So, I guess HI-TIDE (beta2) can't find salvo's include file neither?

Project's Advanced Options: CPP
-IC:HTSOFTPIC18include
-Ic:salvoinc
-D_18C452
-D_PIC18
-SP1,1,1,1,1,1,1
-S1,2,2,4,3,3

thanks much,

Hi, do you know what this linking error is about? I've hardcoded absolute paths with #include "c:salvoincsalvo" and #include "c:salvodemod4sysfsalvocfg.h" in order to get to here!
