MPLAB 7.20 Help please?

[Christian]

I also had this same problem and as slloyd said, the project was burried very deep. I just created a directory: C:/camera and put the project in there. Then, changed the output directory to that path since it was still creating the .coff file after the directory change.

After you go Project -> Build All -> Project, you go to the MPLINK Linker tab and check "Suppress COD file generation." That worked for me.

Welcome to the world of Gracious Professionalism. Helping each other out is part of the culture we're trying to spread. Soak it up and pass it along. While FRC teams are certainly rivals, we are not enemies.

glad to help

[groovy69]

another problem now.. in the com1 terminal window.. it doesnt display any of my printfs... which is puzzling...


essentially this is all i want to see:


-------------------------


rot = Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in01);
temp = Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in02);
pot = Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in03);
ac = Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in04);


printf("rot: 3%d, temp: 3%d, pot: 3%d, ac: %d/r", rot, temp, pot, ac);

The carriage return character is \r.

^ omgosh .. bleh what a small and terrible error on my part.. thanks for catching that..
-however, it still does not diplay anything in the com1 terminal window..


maybe this will help:

when i unplug the frc controller from the main power (12V) the com terminal window prints: IFI>
it does this once for every time i unplug, then plug back in, the power to the controller...

hmm??



------ and it seems like everytime i turn around im getting some new error---
any help?
