C:\EXAMPL~1\E-PATH~1\IN-OLD-F~1\ORMAT~1\FRC_AL~1.LIB). Eclipse and the MCC18 tools also didn't play well at first with Subversion (Clean->Build All deleted some .svn directories and corrupted a repo I had going when I tried to commit the .hex files, luckily I was only 3 revs in from the default code). There were other issues as well, lots of tweaking paths-especially under Linker Information-and fiddling with MinGW make (which does work). It's just not as convienent as MPLAB.

However, I haven't run MPLAB since April of last year. [color=DarkOrange]Refactoring support, a quick diff viewer, and autocomplete are addictive, as is Ctrl+F3.

Other than that, I usually prototype with Dev-C++ when doing quirky C things like function pointers and Zend Studio 5.2 when just playing with program logic.

Yeah. Part of the problem is that GNU Make and the Makefile generator fights me. You have to do things like double quote (""C:\mcc18\lib"") to get it to work.

The other problem is that I don't think I can distribute MCC18 with it.

The only time MinGW fails is when you pass flags like "/w", which I think is required for MPASM.

I'll be the first to admit. FIRSTclipse has a long way to go. MCC18 and the CDT don't really mesh well. The error parser just fails miserably when using Wine.

All I can say is to help. Contribute code. Test new versions. Make packages. All I know is I can't do it all myself.
