View Full Version : Can't find "Install MPLAB Plugin"

I have been trying to get PBP to run inside MPLAB. In the tutorial, it says to go to the PBP subdirectory and click on "Install MPLAB Plugin". The trouble is - I don't have any file named that - anywhere.

I even checked on my PBP 2.60 install CD. Can't find the file. Where do I look?

I'm running Win7 and PBP is installed in C:\PIC\Compiler 2_60

It is easiest to find and run from here. Do you have it here? I can't help you on the rest though. That's new territory for me.
You are following these instructions: http://www.picbasic.com/support/mplab.htm

Otherwise it's that kind of funky registering a dll thing.
regsvr32.exe C:\PBP\PBPSUITE.DLL from the system32 directory

Finally got it working - kind of.

I can compile in MPLAB, but the debugger won't run. It is complaining about duplicate labels in the second pass.

In order to get it to run I had to register the DLL. That sort of thing doesn't bother me. What makes it hard is that I almost never put things in the 'default' directory, so the simple 'click on this' doesn't usually work for me.
