Hi, PiKdev is a lightweigth integrated development environment for PIC devices which exists since 2002. Due to various reasons, the development of this IDE has been stopped during a couple of years, but I found enough time to develop it again. PiKdev supports pic10, pic12, pic16 and pic18 devices. Supported programmers are serial (JDM-like), parrallel (Tait-like) or USB (Microchip's pickit2 and clones). Programming languages are ASM (with gputils tools) and C (with the cpik compiler for PIC18 devices). PiKdev is simple but handy. It supports the "project concept", but can also be used for stand-alone asm files. Recent improvements are: - Improved project browser, with direct access to each function/variable/typedef declaration or definition. This feature works also with cpik's source libraries (.slb files) and is very useful when a project become important. A C parser has been developped for C source code analysis. - Interactive CONFIG bits editor. This feature has been developed for PIC18 devices because they contain no less then 14 config registers. Populating these registers is a pain when you begin a project. The editor allows you to choose a configuration and generates (commented) source code for you. Can be used in both ASM or C contexts, and works for all supported devices. Config fuses are now part of the project parameters.
