Mplab 7.40/MPASM 5.03 config

[khoog]

I just updated to Mplab 7.40 and MPASM 5.03.

When compiling a known good file I get three warning messages-

"Warning[230] c\pbp\18f8490.inc 20:__CONFIG has been deprecated for PIC18 devices. Use directive CONFIG."

The other warnings are the same, they just refer to lines 21 and 22.

I tried taking out the underscores in the .inc file, but that results in errors. I'm not sure what they mean by "deprecated," but has anyone else run into this? Does this mean all the 18f .inc files will soon have to be modified?

They are just warnings that the method of specifying Config fuses has changed and that the "old" methods might not be supported in the future. As of now they are supported so it is of no issue now. See this post for further explanation (and follow links within for all the details).

Thanks Paul.

It always irritates me when someone posts a question that has been covered several times before, and now I've gone and done that exact same thing. Sorry.

Maybe this thread will be easier to find using search than the other ones, so it won't have been a complete waste.
