#PIN_SELECT changed in V4.125
PostPosted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 1:36 am     Reply with quote

I used to be able to use #defines in #PIN_SELECT:
ie:
Code:
#define P_ChargePWM PIN_G6
 ...
#PIN_SELECT OC1=P_ChargePWM


but now in V4.125 I have to say:
Code:
#PIN_SELECT OC1=PIN_G6


This is PCD, I have not yet tried the other compilers.

This seems to be a backward step

Hi there,

Late response I know, but I just saw your post. I was having the same problem, and got in touch with CCS support. What they said:

Quote:
Make sure there is not a tab on the #define line. 4.125 seems to have a problem with tabs in the #pin_select. This will be fixed in the next release.


That seemed to work for me. I needed to remove ALL TABS from all lines of code which had a #define statement to rename a pin, and from all of my #pin_select lines. This INCLUDES tabs after the command - i.e., between your #define and a comment on the same line.

Hope that helps, I'm looking forward to a compiler update. There seem to be a couple problems with 4.125.

Ooo, this is an old bug that seems to have crept back in.

For Shame.

Thank you, I was about to pull my hair out.

Now I'm just cursing as I remove all tabs everywhere... it's slightly less stressful.

And I'm not a fan of spaces -- I like tabs.. but I can see their downfall.

Yay Python. (grrrr)

I take it back. I am pulling my hair out.

Even with the spaces change, there seems to be something wrong with the PIN_SELECTs. I reverted to an older PCD version, and my I/O works -- with the newest compiler (4.125), it doesn't.

Does anyone have a link to version 4.124? Unfortunately, the last one I saved off was 4.112...

If you are registered user of 4.125 report the problem to CCS and they will likely send you the previous version.

And probably the next... They usually send you a free update when you report a bug like this..

I wanna know who you guys are talking to, cause I've never received good customer service from them, and I've been a licensed customer (reporting a multitude of bugs) for years.

I actually keep a separate project on MPLAB with a bunch of regression tests to try against each new upgrade... and I have yet to see any of the bugs I've reported be fixed. :-/

I always reported my bugs to the support email at the top of this page, never by phone. Often I got a response that the bug would be fixed in the next release and as mentioned by others, sometimes got a free update for the next release.
Some of the lesser important bugs were not fixed, too bad, but I do understand that a commercial company has to make choices.
