Hi, everyone, I have PikLab loaded, and the latest subversion as of a week ago. I have also loaded Kdevelop.
What started me down this path is the issue where piklab can find the gpasm, gpsim and gputils executables, but responds with the message "gp***" not recognized in the configure toolchains dialog. If you click the search button, it brings up a message box which shows:
Command for executable detection: gpasm -v Version string:
gpasm-0.13.7 beta
My guess is that the word beta on the end of the version string is confusing the comparison used in the program. Alain has tried to make a fix on this but was unsuccessful.
So, I obtained the subversion copy, loaded Kdevelop and attempted to open the project. The project was not populated. My various attempts to populate the project with the files have all failed.
I am unaccustomed to programs of this structure. I have used C and C++ before, and while not a power user in terms of systems programming, I do write a lot of code. However this user interface, while probably simple to all of you has me baffled. If someone could write up the procedure they use to bring up the debugger, it would be very helpful, and I will return my work to upstream.
Some of the projects I have done include program translation utilities, simulation translation to program data for test systems and other utilities as well as more than 100 test programs on main frame IC testers running a variety of languages and operating systems.
And while the coding is intense in these programs, they are essentially tightly bound, runtime sensitive and so a loose coupling is not optional.
I have forgotten much about loosely coupled programming, but not everything. I am also a very quick learner once I get my initial hurdles cleared so I can experiment and develop techniques.
