    Yep, were it within my ability, everything I’ve ever posted here would be gone.
    Not through the same negativity as when I left, although that was valid.

    I’m quite pissed. At least one mod or admin will have to know why, and the commonality of what has gone missing.
    Unless you want to be stuck with decade old stuff, different ways of doing things (or...

    LCD serial terminal

    Hi Guys :)

    This was pretty easy to share since it’s literally the schematic out of the manual, except 20 MHz clock, and has a serial input.

    I was looking for a simple serial terminal display...

    Re: jumping out of a gosub reminder

    You could count your gosub nesting level in another variable.
    Increment for every gosub, and decrement for every return.
    You don’t know about PBP's own gosubs, but they are supposed to be the...

    Re: Multiplexer address control..

    It would be quicker if you used the port bits 0-3 instead, so you could just increment the port b value.
    The quickest way also depends where the enable bit is connected.

    Hi Guys :)

    I thought you might appreciate this one.

    Re: Circumference of circle to many decimal places

    But in C, since you usually have math.h with floating point, you wouldn’t actually do that.
    This was part of a challenge with strict constraints.

    To do it in C, it’s:


    float circ;

    Re: inverting all bits in a byte

    Using comf would be about twice as fast there since you don’t have to do anything at all with the literal 0xFF.

    Re: Figured Out MPLAB X

    Hi :)
    For help with latest versions:
    github.com/cv007/XC3216

    XC8 is definitely not GCC.

    The Mac OS version is missing form the document on Github, and I have found it myself:

    Re: Max Array Size?

    It’s enough for me not to bother.
    I’m studying now, and can’t do anything real committing where time spent on it could spiral out of control,
    so I’ve been sniffing for a short kind of project.

    This has the potential to become that forum. PBP won’t be practical forever.

    Oh my. The fact that yours hasn’t gotten a single reply puts me off. It’s not like I’d benefit at all porting one to PBP.
    I looked at it enough, that it looks tidy, and in the end it does look like...

    My current project is for dspic33FJ128GP802, and has an 8000 byte, a 1024 byte, and 2048 byte arrays, but that’s not PBP.
    (I say current, but I think it’s finished now).

    Re: 12F683 PWM output not remembering.

    Yes that code is going to kill the EEPROM location quickly.
    You need to write only every “so many” loops.

    Neither.
    No pic I’ve used with PBP has provided a mechanism to define all available RAM in a single array, probably due to bank swapping.
    I’d guess PBP wants the RAM in an array to be continuous,...

    Re: Figured Out MPLAB X

    It’s not illegal to include it in your own project and sell it so long as you provide the source (which Microchip do).

    You should have a message Richard, but the second method might also break XC8 (untested).
