Error - Unable to find symbol name in string table

make[2]: *** [build/default/production/Dummy\.cof] Error 1

I've never seen backslash in file names, is that even allowed?

Edit: shouldn't these be slashes?

I saw it too, maybe its a part of a regular expression...

I've opened a webticket on microchip.com, I have no expectation on this...

I find the pbp source file must !!! be in the source folder of the project or it all goes pear shaped

overall I find mplabx not worth the effort for pbp files , its just my two cents worth

[MichelJasmin]

Richard: what IDE are you using? I really don't like mplabx

[richard]

I bought MicroCode Studio Plus with plans to use the icd but my laptop has no serial ports and I have nothing but trouble getting usb/serial adapters to work reliably with the icd ,4 times out of 5 I get connection timeout and then even if I get it to connect the connection drops out after a while (tried about 4 different ones all had issues). so I gave up on source level debugging and just use MicroCode Studio for pbp now . I find it adequate.
there is also FineLineIDE kicking around it seemed promising if one is interested in learning something new, I think I have enough on my plate for now
