Post by thread:[PIC]: There seems to be an update of MPLAB availa

Hi, while casually browsing today i discovered some odd stuff, ( I'm really *waiting* for an new MPLAB 32 bit ) on the mplab download page the release date for the full d/l is odd: 2002-03-19 (!) but is still states version 5.50 a bit further below there is an 'point update' 5.50.15 (?) dated: 2002-03-13 Might contain some fixes to us poor bastards that have to live with the dinosaur MPLAB 16bit ( please someone send an astriod to finish it off :) ) /Tony -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

I have been having some strange problems with GPF's on my W2K machine. Won't go away unless I clean out the install directory and re-install. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways. See http://www.piclist.com/#archives for details.

There are no fixes, just support for the new flash PIC18s. I've found one way to bring down the "uncrashable" Windows 2000 is to run MPLAB and bring up the ICE200 wrong. By the way, there appear to be more wrong ways to bring up the ICE than right ways. -Mike -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

It runs fine under wine on Linux (so do most compilers for micros I have) so I don't have to cope with OS crashes (have laptop woes now). Peter -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
