Error[115]...duplicate label..."debug"

[Brian J Walsh]

I am trying to program a PIC18F4620 using PBP246a, MPASM 5.16 and MCSP 3.0.0.5.

I get warnings about the __config directive style being out of date, which I can live with.

However, I also get an error as follows:

Error[115] c:\pbp246\pbpic18.lib 1513:duplicate label ("debug" or redefining symbol that cannot be redifined.)

If I comment out all of the debug statements in the PBP code the error goes away. If I re-introduce any one of them the error returns.

Can anyone tell me why my debug statements have become unwelcome?

Thanks,

Brian Walsh.

Look in the MPASM Suite library on your harddrive. There you will find a P18F4620.INC file. In this file there is a label called DEBUG, that is why you get this error. Just change the file
so you remark the line for debug, use ; to do it like the example below. This will fix it untill next time you upgrade MPLAB.

LVDCON EQU H'0FD2'
OSCCON EQU H'0FD3'
;DEBUG EQU H'0FD4'
T0CON EQU H'0FD5'
TMR0L EQU H'0FD6'

Thanks Sinoteq. That fixed it.
