gnupic: Thread: gputils in the near future

Dear gputils users and developers,

here are my plans for gputils in the near future:

  * make the gputils 0.14.3 release candidate 1: today
      o gputils 0.14.3 will support all pic devices supported by latest
        MPASM(X) from MPLAB v1.41
  * make the gputils 0.14.3 final release if no critical regressions
    will be found: next weekend
      o this will be the last release for 0.14.x series
  * merge the preprocessor branch and make the 0.15.0 release:
    immediately after the 0.14.3 release
      o the preprocessor branch already includes fixes for:
          + defines with parameters, for example:

            #define sum(a, b)	((a)+(b))

          + improved / multiple / nested #v() handling, for example:

            xxx#v(10)yyy#v(10 + #v(10))

          + improved macro parameters handling:

            mmm     macro   label,instr
            label   instr
                     mend
                     mmm     xxx,movlw 10

  * fix / implement nested WHILE handling and make the gputils 1.0.0
    release: probably few weeks after the 0.15.0 release

Comments are welcome.

I guess that includes the bunch of PICs that were just announced?

PIC16F1454
PIC16F1455
PIC16F1459
PIC18F13K50
PIC18F14K50
PIC18F24K50
PIC18F25K50
PIC18F45K50
PIC18F65J94
PIC18F66J94
PIC18F67J94
PIC18F85J94
PIC18F86J94
PIC18F87J94
PIC18F95J94
PIC18F96J94
PIC18F97J94

Looks really great, regardless of status of above parts!

Yes, the listed pics are included.

Does this include simulation of all devices too? While assembly and linking
have kept up well, I've been waiting for gpsim to catch up with the others.

All excellent additions.

My mistake. I realize now that gpsim is a separate package.

For me that would be the antithesis of what gputils is about.

But if you would like to see it, I encourage you to do it yourself!

Mission completed ;-)

I wish you all the best in 2013,
