gpsim
GNU Pic Simulator, a simulator for
Microchip's PIC microcontrollers.
I've just uploaded a new release of gpsim to
http://www.interstice.com/~sdattalo/gnupic/gpsim-0.17.0.tar.gz
or goto the webpage:
http://www.interstice.com/~sdattalo/gnupic/gpsim.html
or (NEW!)
http://www.dattalo.com/gnupic/gpsim.html
Also, you'll probably want to grab the latest release of gpasm
http://www.interstice.com/~sdattalo/gnupic/gpasm-0.0.7d.tar.gz
(This is [still] an unofficial interim release of gpasm. But
James Bowman has resurfaced and should be releasing gpasm-0.0.8
very soon.
New features:
16NOV99 gpsim-0.17.0
o gui - Major overhaul of Register Window
o gui - Symbol window added
o 18Cxxx
-- Interrupts are now supported
-- TMR0 is implemented
-- USART asynchronous mode is supported
o automake is now used to create the makefiles
o version numbering has changed so that 'minor releases'
(which by definition are the only ones I've made) are
now expressed in the middle revision instead of the
last revision number.
o numerous bug fixes
o Cycle counter is now 64 bits.
README:
------
Please see the README file for all of the details on the new features.
INSTALL:
-------
install gpsim the standard way:
tar -xvzf gpsim-0.17.0.tar.gz
./configure
cd gpsim-0.17.0/
make
su root
make install
this will expand into a child directory named gpsim-0.17.0 . From there
you can check the README, README.EXAMPLES, INSTALL, HISTORY, PROCESSORS
and TODO files for more information. The rest of the steps will build
gpsim and place the executable into /usr/local/bin . If you don't have
root privileges then you can copy the executable at
gpsim-0.17.0/gpsim/gpsim to a directory in the execution path .
Special Thanks goes out to Ralf Forsberg.
If you have any questions, you know how to reach me...
Have fun!
