Allows users to set the Compiler options.


===Options list===

See the [[Managing Compiler Settings]] topic for more information on using this feature.


'''Substitute variables used by Flowcode'''

'''%t''' Target name e.g. 16F88

'''%f'''  Filename without extension e.g. C:\Dev\Test\Mytest.fcf becomes - C:\Dev\Test\Mytest 

'''%d''' Directory location of the Flowcode file


'''Using the BoostC Compiler'''


'''Compiler location'''

Sets the Compiler location.

Default:

''$(appdir)compilers\pic\boostc\boostc_$(family:/12F/16F).exe''

'''Compiler parameters'''

Adds command line parameters when called from Flowcode

Default:

''-v -t PIC$(chip:u) "$(target).c"''


'''Linker/Assembler location'''

Sets the Assembler program location.

Default:

''$(appdir)compilers\pic\boostc\boostlink_picmicro.exe''

'''Linker/Assembler parameters'''

Adds command line parameters when called from Flowcode

Default:

''-ld "$(appdir)compilers\pic\boostc\lib" libc_$(family:/12F/16F).lib rand_$(family:/12F/16F).lib float_$(family:/12F/16F).lib "$(target).obj" -t PIC$(chip:u) -d "$(outdir:~-1)" -p "$(target)"''



'''Using the HI TECH C Compiler'''


'''Compiler location'''

Sets the Compiler location.

Default 16F:

''C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\PICC\PRO\9.65\bin\picc.exe''

Default 18F:

''C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\PICC-18\PRO\9.63\bin\picc18.exe''


'''Compiler parameters'''

Adds command line parameters when called from Flowcode

Default:

--CHIP=%p -N48 %f.c


'''Linker/Assembler location'''

Sets the Assembler program location.

Default:

''C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\tools\Dummy\DoNothing.exe''


'''Linker/Assembler parameters'''

Adds command line parameters when called from Flowcode

Default:


'''Programmer location'''

Sets the Programmer application location.

Default:

''$(appdir)tools\PPP\PPPv3.exe''


To use the PICkit2 programmer change the location to

''C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\tools\PICkit2\pk2cmd.exe''


To use the PICkit3 programmer change the location to

''C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\tools\PICkit3\pk3cmd.exe''


'''Programmer parameters'''

Adds command line parameters for  the Programmer application.

Default:

''-cs 2 -chip PIC$(chip) -nogui "$(outdir)$(target).hex"''


To use the PICkit2 programmer change the parameters to

''-BC:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\Tools\PICkit2\ -PPIC%p -F%f.hex -M -A5 -R''


To use the PICkit3 programmer change the parameters to

''-P%p -F%f.hex -E -M -Y''


'''Use Programmer to set configuration options'''

Check box to allow the Programmer application to be used to set up the configuration of the device. This setting needs to be unticked to allow you to use non default programming applications such as the PicKit2.


'''Configuration parameters'''

Supplies the command line parameters needed for configuration.

Default:

''-cs 2 -chip PIC%p -config''

Note: The above Programmer defaults assume that you are using the PPP Programming application from Matrix Multimedia.
If you are using an alternative programming application you will need to consult the documentation for that application for the required parameters and settings.

Additionally configuration words can be embedded into the program using the Supplementary code feature, or C Code icons.


For help using the PicKit2 Programmer with Flowcode, untick the "Use Programmer to set configuration options" button and then click here to view the configuration settings required.


'''File Viewer location'''

Sets the File viewer location for viewing C and Assembly files.

Default:

''C:\Windows\Notepad.exe''


'''File Viewer parameters'''

Adds command line parameters for the File viewer program

Default Assembly file viewer

''$(outdir)$(target).asm''

Default external program to view source files

''$(outdir)$(target).c''
