In SX Microcontrollers, SX/B Compiler and SX-Key Tool, dkemppai wrote: [quote="PJMonty"] Hey Boys and Girls! Just wanted to provide a quick update on the C compiler support status. First of all, you should understand that this involves work back and forth between two companies - CCS and Parallax. Second, when I say "Parallax", I really mean "me". Third, when I say... "me", I mean the me who is not an employee of Parallax, but just a sub-contractor working for Parallax on the SX-Key IDE. Fourth, when I say... well, let me just add that I took on a full time job a few months ago that shipped me to Hong Kong, and there is a 16 hour time difference between myself and Parallax or CCS. [/quote] Peter, Well, gee, if the code was open sourced, I'd like to at least take a peek at it. (Actually, I have a copy of the .zip from sxlist, but just not the password for the file). But, I imagine that you've made quite a few changes to the IDE since then. One of my sub duties is to write PC code. I know how this stuff goes... ...so we really do appreciate the work you're putting into it. Ken, Why does this freaking page always want to double space everything when I hit the return key?!? Anyway I sure hope that I have time to work with the CCS when it finally gets handed out. I'd love to dig into it. It would be really nice to ride the learning curve with everyone else... ...that way I wouldn't get left behind! I think it would be a great opportunity. As long as my schedule isn't too busy, or your timeline isn't too quick you can count me in. Also, I may have one or two extra circuit boards that I could loan out for debug purposes. The only problem is that they need the SX52. But they have two PWM channels with drivers with 20Amp fets in full H-Bridge configuration, 2 RS232 coms, 2 ADC's, 1 DAC, and a 2x16 LCD. If someone else were interested in working with me, we could co-develop code on these boards... ...but we can cross that bridge when we get there. Thanks, -Dan P.S I believe the Egg thing you guys are talking about is Balute. I'll pass. I think I'll just go out, and shoot a deer, dig shoulder deep in the guts to empty it out, skin it, and cut a few fresh steaks and fry them up in butter and onions and pepper. Actually, now that we're way off subject again... ...I think more people should kill what they eat. It really gives you more of an appreciation for the food you consume. You don't really think about life, until you're sitting down enjoying a steak, remembering the moment you killed the animal that you are eating. It is then that you truly respect nature and life. One of the most powerful and awesome set of emotions you may ever experience will fill you when you remember that journey. It's not about killing, it's about communing with nature, and being part of nature. Eat a hamburger and you're just paying someone to do the work, so that you can miss out on something that you should be experiencing yourself. I think this is where our American culture is missing out. Many other peoples respect the food they eat because they are close to it than we are.... ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=2&m=95712#m109309 Need assistance?
