Help!

   In AVRStudio 4.13 SP2: I am attempting to break my assembly
language file up into multiple files, as 3000+ lines is a bit
unmanageable in a single file.   So I captured out portions into
various external files, and am trying to use the .include directive to
include them at the appropriate points in the main source file.

   Unfortunately, AVRStudio defaults to *\Program
Files\Atmel\Tools\Assembler2\Applications Notes\  for .includes.


   So how do I point it to my local dir for this include files?  I am
using Windows Vista, and even though I am putting in the path that
Windows Explorer reveals, AVRStudio is claiming it cannot find the
files.   This is driving me bonkers!

   Someone?

thanks

John:

    I have done that.  No matter what I put in the .include, it comes
back as "not found" when I try to assemble it.   I have used the path:
C:\Users\avrFreak\Documents\Pendant-Toga\Declarations.asm

Which, according to Windows Explorer is the correct path, but
AVRStudio insists it isn't there. )-:

   I have been fighting with this ALL DAY.  )-:

I have not had an problem with includes. I think that include path is  
the default if it is not found in the project folder.

Use the FULL path in your include directive.

.include        "c:\avr\projects\dis25100\int_s_dis25100.asm"
.include        "c:\avr\lib\TWI_master_m48_m88_m168.asm"

for the default directory where you have you project you can omit the path

This:
.include        "c:\avr\projects\dis25100\int_s_dis25100.asm"

can be:
.include        "int_s_dis25100.asm"
As long as it resides in the same folder as the project.

...and I guess you have put the quotation marks around the path...I know
silly question :-)

Have you tried just using just the plain  C:\ path? I have never had any
problems with include paths. Maybe remove the - from the path?
Clutching at straws..

Why don't you let the assembler build the separate files and let the  
linker make the connections?

The Atmel AVR assembler is an absolute assembler, producing .hex files 
directly with no linker.  That's one of the several good reasons to 
use gas instead.
