Post by ALAN_26 »

Hi Steve or been

I’m trying to compile to asm a program on pic18f452 (32k program memory) but is giving me this error . I am using the 30day trial , but I’m waiting for the pro version to arrive , will the pro version fix this problem ??


License exceeded by RAM: 0 bytes, ROM: 173 bytes
You have reached the limit of the Lite License
PIC18 max code size:8192 bytes, max RAM banks:2, Non commercial use only
You can upgrade your license. Please visit: http://www.sourceboost.com


Failure

Return code = -2

Flowcode was unable to assemble the ASM file due to the following errors:

Hello Alan,

The 30-day trial has restrictions on the maximum ROM and RAM available and it looks like you have exceeded these.

The professional version does not have these restrictions, so your program should compile without problems. We have been sending out Flowcode v3 CDs over the past few days, so you should hopefully receive it today or tomorrow.

Ok Steve !

Just another small thing 

Is there a tool or something to monitor the status of the program memory ( where there it is full or half filled ) when writing a program ?

Thanks for your help

Regards :

Alan .

I'm afraid not - this is information that can only be known once the C compiler has had a go at the code.

But there is a useful file that is produced that will show the ROM and RAM statistics of your program in a per-macro basis. The file is "xxxx.stat" (where xxxx is the name of your flowcode program).

Note that this is available on Flowcode v3 only.
