OT: Boostc Debug Mode .."printf" and other...

[Rudi]

Hi
how is this mean in boostc pdf under #ifdef // #ifndef description.

example:

Code: Select all

#ifndef DEBUG
printf(“Debug disabled !”);
#else
printf(“Reached test point #1”);
#endif

where / how i can use printf ....

I have a future question for theme in alternate pic compiler.
the math issues in boostc...
can it be eliminated or is this a bug eternity,
Any News to this?..is there perhabs a way to go on with microchip hitec next patches... versions?..
BoostC is lacking in a few areas such as new device support and floating point maths.
will it give a maintance update in FC6 with change the pic compiler from boostc in other?


Thank you!
Best wishes
Rudi

Hi Rudi,

Ben and I have both registered on the BoostC forum and raised the question about native float support (some others have chipped in as well) but it seems to me that BoostC staff just ignore it really. Ben also told me that they are in fact looking at switching to the microchip compiler but I don't know how that work is progressing. Maybe Ben will update us on that.
