Time measurements ...

In MPLAB you have a stopwatch to measure the time spend in a subroutine and I use this to control my own calculations on time spending.

In FlowCode you can't calculate anything about time spending - or do I miss something ?

I think it would be nice to know the time spend in an interrupt or a special macro.

Can I do that in FlowCode (version 4) ?

I placed a suggestion about timing routines, delays etc. See:

What I do to check timing now is load hex code in a simulator which has options to reset timings. Set a break point where I would like timing to end, then press run.
That way I see exactly how long routine has taken.
Has Microsoft simulator got that facility, as not used it in years?

Oh yeah - I'll try that in MPLAB

I think you mean MicroCHIP instead of MicroSOFT - right ?

:lol: yes I do mean Microchip. I don't know how why I thinking Microsoft. :roll:
Anyway it's mpsim the name of simulator I had in mind for Microchips version. Thanks for letting me know.
