I have a project in F7 that uses a PIC18F252, but will not compile to generate a HEX file...........errors reported as per below. No problem when compiling and assembling with boostC in FC6.
In an attempt to discover where the problem is, I have systematically removed each and every part/component of the program until there is only the Start and End icon and the processor. Error messages still occur. It seems the issue is with the PIC18F252..............
Starting a new project with just start and end icons and a PIC18F252 generates the same message when compiling. Also tried a PIC18F258 and a PIC 18F452 with the same results..........
Can anyone help please -

Thanks
Richard

Employing 18F452 errata work-arounds:
* Address 4000h boundary
* Faulty table reads at -40 degrees C
* GOTO instruction at reset vector must be preceded by NOP
* Peripherals can misbehave if BSR = 15
* DAW instruction may improperly clear CARRY bit
* Specifically disable interrupt sources during tblwt instruction
* Writes to flash must target opposite side of 4000h boundary

Hi
I cannot replicate this issue.
Have you tried the updates from this post? ...

Hello,

The problem seems to be your Flowcode project name "Dust module_compiler_testoing" for some reason the XC8 compiler doesn't like it. If you try using the project name "testoing" then compilation works as expected.

It seems any spaces in the Flowcode project name will cause the problem.

Thanks for the feedback.............The project name was meant to be a single word with underscores between separate words and one got missed. Finger trouble on my part and as often happens, the harder one looks the less one actually sees!. Program seems to compile/assemble now. Thanks again.

Richard

Hi LeighM
Problem seems resolved now - see Benj reply. Yes I did find the updates and have them installed. Thanks for the reply
