Here is the page for the C18 Compiler (you should be able to get a free academic version or a light version (or something, at least)). I don't remember exactly what version number is required, but I think it's 2.4. EDIT: It looks like you do need MPLAB 7.2 and C18 2.4 to compile 2004-2006 code, but I couldn't find anything about 2007/8. I would suppose the same versions would work, but that's a question best answered by someone actually programming FRC robots then (i.e. not me)
IFI loader and some other resources from IFI can be found here. |
The school computer (w. a serial port) that we received for programming will take a few days to get running. I have (thankfully) found our teams 2007 and 2008 discs, and in the meantime I am wondering if we can use more recent versions of the software vs. the versions listed above...
Could we use a
newer version of the MPLAB IDE, or are we stuck using the version given to us in 2008?
What about the compiler, should I use the one given to us in 2008, or should I use the
student version?
Thanks,
Daniel
