For the benifit of those whom don't have the original posts....

Here are the details:
CCS version 3.073

The complete C source code:
#if defined(__PCM__)
#include <16f876.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOPROTECT
#use delay(clock=4000000)
#use standard_io(B)
#endif

#org 0x1F00, 0x1FFF void loader16F876(void) {} file://as specified on
MicrochipC - reserves the top memory for the boot loader

void main()
{
while(1)
{
output_bit(PIN_B0,1);
delay_ms(400);
output_bit(PIN_B0,0);
delay_ms(400);
}
}

Subject: Re: [PIC]: Bootloader confusion


Denny,

I do not have copies of your original posting. What Compiler are you using ?

You mention the issue may be relocation of your code start.

I use Hi-Tech C and either add psect statement with appropriate relocation
code at start of the source file to relocate the start or I use the compiler
relocation switch MPLAB. Project Build Options -> Compiler set -Axxxx
for the code start.

If you READ the code from the micro when the bootloader is programmed into
it,
you should see the jump at reset vector to the bootloader and the bootloader
code residing in the high memory locations.

You then compile your user code with the -Axxxx and upload it to the micro.
Now if you read the micro contents back, you should see the reset vector
jump
to bootloader code still there and also your user code starting at location
xxx
(as defined in the -Axxx compiler line option).

Kind Regards

David Huisman
