I'm looking for a rapid start to compile and modify some code, so some quick questions for help please.
CCS compiler ( with the IDE )- does it work with the cheap Pickit 2 or 3 for debug?
MPLAB or CCS ? looking for a free / low cost toolchain for PIC 18 series.
On a first attempted compile and debug with a loaned CCS environment, the compile worked fine, but trying to start debug the tools required a recompile with 'debug enabled' or something - then the compile failed with a 'no space for variables' error.
Coming from the AVR environment - a compile is a compile - and debug simply runs that code - there is no change needed to the code to get the debugger to work - so what goes on with the PIC and this memory problem?
Any clues would help.
Thanks
