Direct Port Manipulation PBP3 Pro silver edition

[HenrikOlsson]

LATB is a register within the PIC, not a PBP command. Exactly the same as TRISA, CMCON, WPUA, ANSELA, ADCON and a few hundred more that you will not find in the PBP manual but rather in the datasheet for the specific PIC you're using - again because they are not PBP commands but registers in the PIC that you can read/write.

LATB.0 = 1 is the syntax used to set bit 0 of the LATB register to '1'.

Not all PICs have a LAT registers. On those who don't you need use the PORT register instead.

NOP is the assembly instruction "No Operation" which "wastes" one instruction cycle. @ is the inline assembly directive used to tell PBP that the rest of the line is in fact assembly and not PBP commands.

Thanks so much HenrikOlsson for all this,
just read about (LAT register (output latch)) in datasheet, and found the NOP but was puzzle about the @. you did clarify all this.
