Hello David Barker

Will Swordfish supports more pic micro series in future, not only 18th serie?

Best Regards

Regarding the future development of Swordfish, I've posted some notes on the wiki which I hope to update on a regular basis...

Fair enough to me.

Thanks David.

Thank you David for your reply.

I think no good idea to restrict your compiler.
Excuse me , it's just my opinion.
This is not the first attempt to be done something similar.
Look please:
http://www.midwest-software.com
It uses the same idea.Restricted to PIC18XXXX,and a second variant for dsPic only.
If is successfull or not?

Best regards

Hi all,

I also think, it's fair enough when the support will be the same.

I had a look at the midwest Basic and I have seen, that there where no board like at Swordfish or MikroBasic. Without the fast support I would despair.

I also think the update process from Midwest Basic isn't as good as like the update process from MikroBasic or Swordfish. With every major update you have to pay a fee. I don't want to pay again and again for updates because of bugs!!!!

It seems like Midwest-basic ist dead because the site wasn't updated since 24.10.2005. In my opinion it isn't a wonder!

Best wishes
CS
