Compiler/Downloader Question

Thanks Darrel, I'll try that.
I know the green arrow isn't pointing at an error I just couldn't figure out why it was popping up the .lib file all the time - now I know.

Any pointers on how to work with color syntaxing and code folding, can it be set up to work with PBP as the language tool?

Hi Darrel,

Thank you for the help.

Highliting in MPLAB only works on files with a .bas extension.

You're welcome Don.

Darrel,
Once again thank you! I got color syntaxing working by changing the file extension from .pbp to .bas - now on to code folding....

However, I already had the Source-Level Dubug checkbox ticked and it keeps popping up the .lib file, see attached screenshots. Like I said in the other thread it's me who don't know how to use these tools but I'm trying to learn. I'll keep playing with it.

/Henrik.

There is no code folding.
And the highliting is not perfect because it wasn't done for PicBasic Pro. I'm not sure what Basic Language MPLAB expects with a .bas extension, but it's not PBP.

What version of PBP are you using Henrick?

Have you gone into Build Options for both the Project and the Source file?

[HenrikOlsson]

Hi Darrel,
Yes, I believe I have done so for the project and the source file, see attached screenshot. Ticking/unticking it one place is reflected in the other as well so it looks like it's one and the same dialog accessed.

There's only a single source file in the project (as per instructions) and there's no other files included from this source file.

I'm using PBP 2.6A

Got it on the code-folding, crossing my fingers for 100% integration with MPLAB X :-)

Again, thanks a lot Darrel!

I don't know Henrik.

I can't make it do that here.
I downgraded MPLAB to 8.50 and it still works fine.

Stumped.

[HenrikOlsson]

Stumped.

Ha - finally :-)

Seriously though, having the .lib file pop up is no big deal, but I'm wondering if I'm missing out on something as I never get to see the green arrow in the actual source file. I can set breakpoints, start, stop execution and watch variables etc so it's OK.

I'll keep playing with it.

Thanks Darrel!
