MicroCode Studio oddity...

[mtripoli]

No, it's weirder than that...

As I continue to code I see that other pin/labels are not auto-correcting. I'm coding for a PIC16F1946 64 pin device. Labels attached to PORT A,B,C,D,E.0-6 and G all auto-correct. E.7 and all of PORTF do not. Is this an indication of a deeper problem? Odd that one pin on a port and an entire port is not "recognized". I'm coding and compiling as I go (I don't have the hardware ready yet) so I don't know if the actual pin works yet.

***** ORIGINAL POST *****
I have a bunch of variables in my code. They're all in uppercase letters. While typing if I type one of the labels in lowercase it will auto-correct to uppercase, except for one. Usually this is a good check that the label is wrong. But in this case it is correct, just not auto-correcting. Code compliles just fine... anyone else seen this?

Thanks.

Yeap, I had similar issues with new commnds that appeared after 2.50 version and with some newer PICs.

It seems that MCS needs an upgrade soon.

Also another issue is when I had two files opened and was changing some lines on prog-A, after making some corrections to prog-B and returnd to prog-A, whatever I was doing it got LOST! Frustrating....

Have you tried this?

Yeap and I had some issues with windows ghosting, reported to Norm, but I suppose he is busy.

I have not had that problem. What version are you using. OS?

Most of my work of late has been on my linux box using gedit. Never faild... yet.

I thought I had it figured out... then I added a bunch more variables and noticed that a whole set of variables that had auto-corrected had gone back to "as-typed" (which implies some kind of "history tracking" or something that I'm not at all comfortable with - I don't need surprises in the middle of coding). So I've given up the idea of using this "technique" as a check that the variable has been typed correctly (too bad, I thought it was pretty good).

I can't say that I know for sure that this was supposed to be a valid "feature" of the editor. It's more than a little irritating when development tools do what they want, when they want.

I can't replicate the problem of ghosting however I am working on a new version of FL.
It's built with the latest Delphi compiler and includes some options for windows 7.
I'll send you a beta copy when it's ready.

Thanks Norm. I will be looking forward to.

@ mtripoli: it is indeed very annoying when that happens. I learned my lesson and hit the Ctrl+S all the time. Almost annoyingly often .
