Can HID bootloader and CDC device coexist in PIC controller?

Hi,

I am using a PIC18F44J50 microcontroller board ( PIC Cocoon 2 ) for a project that involves communication with the PC.

The support software for the board includes the HID bootloader preprogrammed into the device and I have the CDC serial demo from the Microchip library. Can I use the CDC serial demo along with the HID bootloader? I figure you need to define the board in CDC project files, but is that all? Or do I need to do something more with the code?

Thanks,
Mukund

Hi, figured it out. Only one of the drivers: HID or CDC is working at a time, depending on the setting of BM jumper. But t sure wastes some memory to have two sets of drivers that must have some kb of code in common. Is it possible to have a CDC bootloader?
