PICBASIC Pro & MPLAB integration syllabus

[Acetronics2]

Hi, Michael

Another reference can be found in the "Command line options", on page ... 18 of the Holy Manual.

sooo do not shout too loud ... !!!


Moreover ...

Open MPLAB Help for MPLAB IDE \ Integrated software \Third party Language Tools ( no secret path ... eh ! )

Horror ... !!! a link to Melabs site !!! ... where the info is.

Now ... What to think ???



Just some ones do not dare to read their documentation ... willing others to make the " boring work " for them.

The same ones who always receive the horrible " RTFM or RTFD " messages ... and cry to moderators for " unfriendly answers ".

We were told " be constructive or shut up " ( sic, it is THE thread title !!! ) ... many of forum elders have chosen to disappear ... ( true or not ?, MM the moderators ...)


Unlucky Newcomers ??? ... not really ! LAZY Newcomers ...


Just begin using the FAQ and SEARCH function of this Forum !!! 99% of the answers are there !!!

MPLAB integration for the first one of them ...

"rather hard" response ??? ...

If lazy are we then we should have not come in here nor spend time tickling our brains on this IDE, compiler nor uChip things.

I could have spent my precious time working on something else in the chemical plant. Why spend some money working on this stuff and be lazy. Like I said from the first line of my post on this wish list forum............."I understand the integration, work around or shall I say configuration is quite available around the net."

Lazy enough is just an easy warrant without basis.....following MELAB how to's needs more than hitting the button for plug ins...but getting a development from start to end....for example:I learned how to run PBP on MPLAB not on this site but from a guy in N & V... if lazy to look for that.... why went as far to that site getting the materials I need.(correct me if I am wrong its more of an AVR site rather than uChip)

I dont know if the term "Knowledge Management" applies here but gents its how successful companies around the world sustain their competitive edge. Making consolidate repositories, manuals or brochure that is easy interms of use, access & retrival is part of that management system.(for error proofing purposes). This may extend beyond PBP & MPLAB integration... but to the software & hardware features as well.

So the key word here is compact compilation, "cant miss it" when you look for it, fast retrival....how many hours we spent browsing the rest of the forum to look for some answers to a single question in our brains when we just miss it somewhere in between forums, between books of different compilers? isnt it better if we can find it in one straight forward book...syllabus ...or in any media that is appropriate written by experts on this site.
(This will help them from answering same silly questions that get them bored)

We know that wishes do not exactly come true as we wish them to be. If it cant be done then it cant be...

Seems hard reactions in here is not necessary.

For now this is no longer a wish list I guess .....but a nightmare

[mackrackit]

Nightmare is correct.

It is a nightmare when someone answers a question and is then made out to be a "bad guy". If I ask a question and I am pointed to the place to find the answer I normally respond with a "thank you!".

I think we should go on..let us see the brighter side of this forum.

Ill be sharing this one as an example of the resources I found..some sort of an example on this integration. I cant verify its content but like I said this helps me.

I cant understand the language of the site it self but the english write up itself seems the same from the guy I mentioned above from central america has been writing.

Just for reference. Hopefully there are a lot more of this kind of resources out there.

@ Mack

Yes Dave....we should give due gratitude to people that help us in anyway. Your a witness on that from the other forum topic...

As to this wish list the perspective is more on commercial side which extends to robustness not only in the setting up of the softwares but to the hardwares as well .Saving aside side comments could have make the discussion less hard & reactive.

As an example: seeing my last response below might give some smile, grin or some sort of expressions in your face.........thats the real experience...that is where I first read that write up.

My deligence few weeks back in searching the net gain some fruit but not knowing I mis it out in the PBP program folder. Often than not... seeing file on the folders under program directory will give you "type=autorun.ico" inside so whom would think its a documentation anyway.

Learning from it thats where I come up to write this wish list in my own commercial perspective.
No intention of making other people look bad.

Seems PBP 2.6 is out...and the instruction on how to run MPLAB is more straight forward compare to the previous version. I can really appreciate the MELAB move on this.

I do not see it on Melab's web site??? Where is 2.6 hiding?
