Re: What is Easy C good for?

Why install easyC?

You could install easyC for just the on-line window alone it allows you to run motors and relays, look at your inputs without one line of code.

Also, it allows experienced programmers to work with students with near zero ability. The can drag blocks while learning C and experienced users can write C code in easyC, Notepad, Eclipse, MPLAB anything and import the .c and .h files into your project.

Also, as I keep saying easyC now has a full C editor. So, if you hate to drag blocks then you don't have to. You can write a program based on WPILIB without ever dragging a single block. Plus you get all features of WPILIB complete with a help file with 14 great tutorials to get you started. Also you can drag blocks from the tree into your C source code and just fill out the config screen and easyC will format the function.
