A header wizard

[cncmachineguy]

Paul, its great! I assume if ADC or any other special function options are chosen, the corasponding pin will not be available for I/O configuration?

Dave, no worries. I might start pushing on you anyway when I start to learn something.

Question for the masses, Do you think we should still include the config bits? I feel like it would still be good to have, plus its all wrapped up in 1 spot. And sometime down the road, we may want it to make some simple error checking like : configed for 4mHz internal osc, but wanting to rum 115KB serial, or something like that.

At minimum the Wizard will need to know the OSC speeds. But we may not have to worry about all of the configs.

Not sure how that will specifically be worked out. The app should make it so that the header will work that way. I think (but need to check) that if you set a particular TRIS direction it will be superseded by a subsequent ADC setup. But I could have this completely wrong...

I've removed the fuse bits parsing but I haven't thrown it away. I currently plan to see what the new mystery application will do, first. It could just 100% outclass anything I can do.

I do think it will be possible to do some sort of "reality check" on the selected configuration to catch circumstances such as that you mention. I would probably put a remmed warning or suggestion into the header text.

Thanks for the comments!
