MPLAB workspace (HELP!)

[MiniNerd24]

Yeah, I had that problem recently too. I just copied and pasted my .c file text and saved it as a .asm file. The compiler reads this and tries to build it. My problem is that it shows 94 (!) errors, even though I'm using a C source code! (If you're using the 2007 source code then the same will happen to you too.)

yea, I am of course using 2007 code. As far as I know there is no 2008 code.(yet at least)

I'm gonna try redownloading the code. Start from scratch, and add the .c files individully.

Well, we decided to just try using the workspace/projecc that comes with the default code, but when compiling that the build fails with:

error - Coff file format for 'ifi_library.o' is out of date
error - Coud not find member 'ifi_library.o' in library file 'C:\filepathToProject\FRC_library_8722.lib'

I'm not sure what else can be done to setup a working project space...

Once you have created the new project using "New" you need to choose the ToolSuite to use.

Menu "Project:Select Language Toolsuite...", brings up a dialog.
Menu "Active Toolsuite:" choose "Microchip C18 Toolsuite".
All the C files should now be in the "Source Files" list.

You may also need to set the locations of the various tools if you have a non-standard setup (might be easier to reinstall a standard setup if you don't know what you are doing).

I did what you said AndrewN and it eliminated some of the errors, but I have the same problem as bronxbomber92, it says that my ifi_library.o is out of date.

If worst comes to worst, would someone mind uploading a working project with the default code for MPLAB 3.0?
