PCWH Compiling Problem
PostPosted: Sun Jul 16, 2006 4:58 am     Reply with quote

I have a program worked well on MPLAB with existing PCM compiler.

Recently, I purchased a PCWH Windows IDE and plan to migrate the old system from PIC16F to PIC18F.

I created a project in MPLAP and selected the device as 18F8585.
I changed the include file of the old program from "16f627" to "18f8585"

MPLAP prompted me error msg when I compiled it:

Clean: Deleting intermediary and output files.
Clean: Done.
Executing: "C:\Program Files\PCWH\PICC\Ccsc.exe" Test.c
Error: The selected compiler: "PCM" is not installed on this PC
Halting build on first failed translation as user preferences indicate.
BUILD FAILED: Sun Jul 16 18:37:54 2006


Can anyone tell me how can I fix this problem?

Try installing the compiler in C:\Program Files\PICC instead. I don't know for the more recent compiler versions, but I couldn't get the older versions in combination with MPLAB to work in another directory.

Thks for your reply.

It seem to be better after installing it to c:\program\picc.

But the IDE prompted me another message at the bottom status bar:

"Unknow device type -- Try PCM"

And it highlighted line "#device PIC16F877" in the 16f877.h file.

Question

It become ok after I changing the device to 18F8585.

My PCWH seem to be not supporting PIC16.

The PIC series selection pull-down manu that on the tool bar has only two series for us to select:

Microchip 12 bit & Microchip PIC18.

But as I know PCWH supporting PIC12, 16 & 18 series.

PCW = PIC18 parts
PCM = PIC16 parts
PCB = PIC14 (12?) parts

In addition to these:
PCWH IDE Compiler: For 12-bit, 14-bit, and PIC18 MCUs (PCB + PCM + PCH + IDE).

So PCWH includes PCM and PIC16 parts should work.

Check your PCM registration file, it is missing or invalid. You received three files by email: pcb.crg, pcm.crg, and pch.crg.
Place these files in the same directory as your PCWH compiler.
