还有多少个象我这样只会PIC汇编写软件的TX呢？

if you know assembly, c is easy.

havent used mplab for quite some time.

in one of the drop down menus, the are three items towards the bottom of that drop down menu, about tools / language etc. open it up and it shows a bunch of toolchains supported by mplab. one of them is ccs.

click it and fill the right path. done.

mplab is a piece of shit - as all things microchip.

I use hi-tide for pic10/12/16 stuff and emblocks for pic24/dspic stuff.

I only use mplab for pic18 stuff.

米兄，在你眼里很多东西都是POS

that's unfair - as I love pickit2: I just found out that I have a total of four of them. stocking them up before they are gone!

对了，今天我发现，PICKIT3也有独立编程上位机软件哦！

that would be very helpful. not having an independent programming environment is a big minus for pickit3.

the whole story of pickit3 is amazing in that it was largely designed by copying the pickit2. so in theory, all the good things about pickit2 (independent programming environment, logic analyzer, etc.) should be quite easy to carry through to pickit3. microchip could have just modify the existing and much beloved pickit2 environment to support both pickit2/3.

instead, they went out of their way to sabotage their own product (pickit2).

those guys are so retarded.

直接用ccs。

their ide looked so amaturish.

if you use older pic10/12/16 chips,  you may consider hi-tide.

if you use pic24f/dspic/32f chips, you may consider emblocks.

I only use mplab when I use pic18f chips.

mplabx is much better in terms of integrating all ides together. but it is so bloated and so slow.

I wish microchip had taken the avrstudio or cb approach.

good for microchip. looks like they finally wised up.

有图为证

that picture speaks volume about microchip quality: a pickit3 application making reference to pickit2 in its help menu.

the point remains: pickit3 should have been a step up from pickit2, both software and hardware. instead, it is anything but. google around and you will see plent of frustration with pickit3 and the difficult journey it has taken microchip to address some of them - pickit3 is so bad that microchip actually made a youtube video about fixing it.

as i don't use the newer chips (my compiler doesn't support them), i am staying with my trusty pickit2.

改用Hi-Tech-C+mplab。

picc (as well as c18 etc.) have come to their end of life. if you are starting new, and want to use newer chips, you may want to look into mplab x and the xcn compilers.

i am too invested in picc/hi-tide and too lazy to learn new tricks.

agreed. i wouldn't try anything from microchip until it is version 2 or later.

mplab x seems to be done by the hi-tech team that developed hi-tide (eclipse, also java-based). as such, mplab x looks surprisingly like hi-tide -> a big plus in my book. however, mplab is very slow and lethargic.

I am still using older compilers with mplab x. but my beloved 9.60std doesn't work with mplab x (9.65pro does).
