And yes it is easier to port to HiTech from C18 than to sdcc from C18. But how easy it really is remains to be seen. CCS and Boost C both provide USB examples. HiTech is lagging here. I will challenge you guys to port the V2.3 USB stack (C18, C30 and C32). > We've done this with the PIC32 compiler > as well, and have even added support for Microchip qualifiers/keywords > to make porting code/examples significantly easier. Again, I will challenge your guys to port the USB stack.
