I have an OLIMEX ICD-2 that I used with MPLAB to program dsPICs. Is it possible to have MicroCode Studio recognize it as well?
I went to View/Compile and Program options.../Programmer/Add New Programmer and it wants the executable. I don't see anything like ICD2.exe on the system.
Has anyone done this?

I was able to install PBP (v2.50B) in MPLAB (v8.10), but with some annoyances.
I am using a 16F88 chip and in MicroCode Studio I modified the default configuration bits using the @ device ..... inline specifier since I was using PM.exe (not MPASM). Apparently MPLAB only uses MPASM. I tried to change to the __Config line, but get errors of overwriting the config byte. I believe this is due to the fact that MLAB automatically includes C:\PBP\16f88.inc which has the __Config statement in it. I tried copying this inc file into the local project directory and commenting out the __Config statement, but MPLAB still picks up the C:\PBP version. Maybe this is a system environmental path declaration issue, but didn't want to change that yet as it might effect other things.
Is the only option to modify the .inc file in the C:\PBP directory? Not a great solution, unless I use the __Config in every PBP program.

You can comment out only the MPASM config and leave the PM alone and use PM when you are feeling energy challanged ;) I always install my own configs and use MPASM because to me it is easier. You may also modify the default configs to your personal needs and not have to mess with it.
