Picsimlab 0.92, not communicating with MPLAB X #132

Open Arto1234 opened 1 day ago

Arto1234 commented 1 day ago

My system:

Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS 64 bit (6.8.0-49-generic)
Picsimlab 0.92
Board in Picsimlab is Mclab2 PIC16F877A
tty0tty is loaded, checked with lsmod, but nobody is using it

Picsimlab config: serial port: /dev/tnt2 What may be wrong?

Arto1234 commented 1 day ago

tty0tty version is 1.4

Hi @Arto1234 , It is not necessary to configure tty0tty to communicate with MPLABX. tty0tty is for serial communication, if the objective is only to view the information sent by the serial port, it is simpler to use the spare part Virtual Term. To communicate with MPLABX it is necessary to install a plugin. The MPLABX debug plugin (com-picsim-picsimlab.nbm) don't work with MPLABX versions greater than 6.05

Thanks for info, so quickly! :) Is fix coming in near future? I started to use MPLAB X 6.20...

As soon as Microchip updates your documentation. See https://github.com/lcgamboa/picsimlab/discussions/124

Thank you. So until then we have to use version 6.05. I'll close this. (I'd like to have your comment on another topic: What do you think, how big effort is to add simulation support for e.g. SAMV71 eval board?)
