Self update of devices

I'm using PICBASIC PRO™ version 2.45. Is there a way to add support for the PIC16F727? I don't see it in the drop down in MCS 3.0.0.5.

You could try creating your own INC and BAS files - you 'might' be lucky and that could be all that was needed... but more complex features may have required changes to the core compiler itself. Try it and see... but upgrading is so cheap anyway, treat yourself to a Christmas prezzy...

Not quite relevant to this thread, but it does concern Microcode Studio Plus. I've been using the 16F88X chips quite a bit, and would love to see MCSP ICD support for these. I wrote to Mecanique a couple of times but got no response.

There was a thread pertaining to this issue http://www.letbasic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4945 where David gave a link for an updated set of ICD files, but although the 16F88Xs are listed, they do not exist in the actual download.

Is there a way to add this support oneself?

Which compiler do you refer too??

PBP 2.47, MCSP 3.0.0.5.

2.47 supports the F88x chips. This has nothing to do with MCS.

If the compiler supports the PIC then so does MCS.

Maybe your issue is something else. Are the *F88x.bas and *F88x.inc files present in your PBP directory??
