Hello,
I'm currently working on PIC24FJ256 project but I am very disappointed to see that MikroC doesn't support them yet. Do you plan to update MikroC soon ? Can't you use libraries for each PIC ? So, we can only update the libraries when new chips are released instead of releasing a new version of MikroC (except for new features of course)?
Regards
All PIC24FJ

Hello,
I don't say I'm not pleased, I just want to say that it would be nice that MikroC is being updated more frequently when new chips are released
MikroC is a good product with many user friendly functions but it should support most of the new chips as soon as possible everytime new chips are released. It's not really a problem for hobbyists but for professionnals it does. I appreciate MikroC and I really don't want to change for another compiler but if there are so few updates in the future I'll have to do change for Microchip C30 or Hi-Tech because they're up to date. So please, support your product better than you are doing it

I can only agree with the post above, the University I work at are looking at new complier instead of Microchips C30 for the research and education with embedded systems and due to the few updates we may forced to ciontinue with microchips more expensive development tools.
The research group that I am involved in are currently using MicroC for dcPic with our dsPIC33 but we have to change to the dsPIC24FJ256GB106 due to hardware requirement, and if MikroC isn't updated soon we will have to migrate to other platforms along with the the education platforms.
This is most unfortunate since the ICD debugger is excellent and all our code for the platform is already written for MikroC. Hopefully there is an update around the corner.

Hi Bob,
mikroC PRO for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 is in it's final stages of development and we are expecting to launch beta version for testing soon. The chip you are referring to is going to be supported by this compiler. But I cannot tell you when the official release of this compiler is going to be published, but it should be somewhere in December.
Best regards,
Aleksandar
