Dumb Question/Understanding PBP pieces

[PickyBiker]

In the PBP folder, there is a .inc and a .bas file for each PIC type. I know what the .inc file is for, but what is the .bas file for? If I use it as a template for a new project, I get tons of errors.

What's that for?

Hi,

@ first ... you do not have to care about those .BAS files ... they are here only for compiler use ( Goodram, badram, registers aliases ... etc,etc )

so, forget about them BOTH ... Compiler AUTOMATICALLY includes it ...

the .inc files may have the "Config" section commented when using MPLAB AND set configs inside the Program ...

But it's all you may have to do with those files ... The more you "touch" them , the more problems you'll get ...

It was bugging me that I didn't know if I should do something with them or not. They won't get anymore attention from me now. In fact, I wouldn't touch them with someone elses keyboard ;)

Thanks for clearing that up.

Hello Acetronics and PickyBiker,
That is the kind of explanation that anyone not familiar with PBP or PB DOES need!


Acetronics, You have been very helpful here.
The manual(s) are somewhat vague on this issue.
Thank you for the nice, neat clarification on the issue.
