I tried it many months ago and I just don't like it. Doesn't feel right, ya know? Update: just checked the website. The IDE seems to have vastly improved. Maybe the compiler and libraries have as well. I will try it again. For C, my preference of compilers is as follows (for various reasons): 1. Microchip - Good support, solid compilers, very good code output, I neve= r found any bugs, works exactly the way I expect it to. Netbeans is a good choice for MPLAB X. Never failed me. 2. HI-TECH - /Amazing/ machine code quality, based on the optimization settings you pick for it (code size/speed). 3. CCS - Pretty good machine code quality, but the real strengths are in th= e libraries and ease of use. IDE is kinda fun. Very easy to get started. I may insert Mikro between #2 and #3 after I try it out. --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
