AVR-Chat

I have no idea what "gas" is, unless it is referring to one of the
gnu AVR toolchain programs.  I have had no luck getting the AVR
simulator inh the gnu toolchain working, so I am stuck using AVRStudio.

   I just need to figure out how to point AVRStudio to my local
directory, which I am having severe difficulty doing. *I* suspect he
problems is Vista related, frankly, but I can;t prove it.  All I know
is that no one I have asked can find a solution for me, and I haven't
found one for two days now, which means my project is going nowhere at
Mach Speed )-:.   Up until yesterday, I was averaging 400+ lines of
documented, assembleable code per day.  For the past two days, I have
averaged about 35 lines of documented code, not assembleable at all,
thanks to this file path problem.

   I **REALLY** don't want to go back to having the entire program in
one source file, as the code is already over 3000 lines, and I
estimate another 1000-1500 are needed.  That is entirely too many
lines of code in a single source file to be manageable.


     **** H E L P M E ****    PLEASE?  someone?

It is the GNU Assembler.  The version targeted to the AVR is avr-
as.exe.

Does it matter whether you use "..." or  or is that only in C?

for some reason my "Shift-," and Shift-." (triangular brackets) didn.t make it through...
between the 2 "or"'s... I meant <...> maybe they'll come if I don't use plain text:

ahah didn't say that the last post :-)

I have only used Studio with Win98 and WinXP pro.

Maybe you can post on AVRfreaks for a larger audience.
I hope you have installed the latest version as they are
doing more improvements so the Studio works with Vista.

The latest offering is still in Beta and you can find it
on the beta ware site of Atmel.

Yes, as others have said gas is the GNU ASsembler. No, don't use the GNU
AVR debugging tools, use gas from within AVR Studio pretty much the same
as you do now.

avr-gcc also works perfectly from AVR Studio. I have almost never used
the non-Atmel debugging tools with AVR, and have almost exclusively used
avr-gcc with AVR Studio since before the "integration".
