why not using native Linux prog pikdev or icdprog
by Andre on Saturday February 16th 2008, 6:32
Why don't you guys try out pikdev or icdprog, those are native linux progs for programming PIC microchips and as I know, cause I use it frequently pikdev is working great ;)

I'm using wine-0.9.48 + MPLAB 7.60. It installs fine, except that installer hangs at the end and I have to kill the process. I didn't install IE or anything else.
When I try to run the application, several message boxes appear with a message like "Failed to initialize legacy language suite with CLSID {12421eb7-4f43-a0d4-830a-f8d0eea8e231}" and in console I get the following output:

MPLAB .asm editor cursor missing
by Adam Pascoe on Thursday September 20th 2007, 22:58
Ok, I have had this prog working on WINE before, but for some reason it doesn´t like my new install of Ubuntu 7.04 with wine 0.9.33.
The prog installs fine, starts up with the expected errors, but in the ASM editor the flashing cursor is missing!!!
You can edit everything just fine, as long as you dont care to know where the cursor is.
Any thoughts?
-Adam
Hi!
Running Ubuntu Fiesty 7.04, I get the following error message when I run any of these versions of MPLAB : 7.20, 7.50, 7.60, 7.61, with wine 0.9.20,0.9.38,0.9.41 :
$ wine ./MPLAB.exe

MPLAB installs ok with any combination of the above mentioned versions, but when it comes to running it, it just hangs at the splash screen and that`s it. Could it be something related to my system? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

MPLAB 7.61 'bronze' with Wine 0.9.38. Installation is runnable but corrupt.
MPLAB 7.52 'garbage' with Wine 0.9.39. Won't install. Runs ok.
MPLAB 7.60 'garbage' with Wine 0.9.39. Won't install. Runs ok.
MPLAB 7.61 'garbage' with Wine 0.9.39. Won't install. Runs ok.
For Wine 0.9.3x, no need to install DCOM98, Internet Explorer, or Arial fonts. Just install directly into a vanilla .wine/
Remember to
cd ~/.wine/dosdevices && ln -s /dev/ttyS0 com1 && groups
for serial port programmers.
In wine 0.9.39 wineprefixcreate fails to run automatically at the first run of wine. winecfg is also broken and cannot create a C: drive. Try running wineprefixcreate manually.
Problem with MPLAB 7.2, wine 9.25, Debian Etch Stable
by James Daldry on Friday April 27th 2007, 6:37
Either with or without IE6 preinstalled, Windows installer stops at C:\windows\system\msmxl4r.dll with error 1603, fatal error. This using the Debian wine packages. Have deleted and re-downloaded (including apt cache .deb files) everything. Uninstalled wine thru Synaptic before deleting .wine directories. Reinstalled from freshly downloaded .debs.
Attempted to build wine from source (I'm running madwifi under Debian, so I know that I have at least some of the tools needed). Installed everything that threw an error during ./configure. make dep goes OK, but make throws a mess of errors about not finding header files and exits with error 2.
If I register the .dlls manually I still don't get the desktop MPLAB icon, and cd'ing to the Core directory and trying to start from the command line just dies.
legacy language suite

MPlab 7.5 not work
by Lukas on Sunday December 10th 2006, 16:22

MPLAB 7.30b works well under wine 0.96
by FlashMac(tm) on Sunday January 29th 2006, 11:17
Hello all, i just wanted to update the current state of Mplab under wine. On my Suse 9.2 system, Mplab 730b works very well. Stuff can be edited and compiled, even simulated fine. However, it's important that in the winecfg application menu both IE6 and MPLAB are set to Windows98. From the Microchip Hardware, Picstart Plus and Promate II both are fully working. ICD2 still could not be verified because i dont have one. Some people however reported to have problems with the ICD2.
ICD2 doesn't work with version 0.9.3
by John Steele Scott on Sunday December 11th 2005, 19:41
I was able install MPLAB 7.20 with Wine 0.9.3, following the instructions in the HOWTO, and then by registering the DLLs as described above.
Unfortunately the ICD2 doesn't work yet. I tried to do it using the serial port. Wine spits out a lot of messages like "fixme:comm:GetCommProperties (0x198 0x7a5be0e8 )", and MPLAB gives errors like "ICD0152: Failed to read all of requested bytes (0x0 of 0x2)".
MPLAB IDE completely works!
by FlashMac(tm) on Sunday November 27th 2005, 16:23
Finally MPLAB fully works as far as creating saving and loading projects is meant. Assembling of software and source level debug with MPLAB-SIM the IDE's integrated simulator is also fully working. For the first time ever even PICSTART plus wich is Microchip's own chip-programmer works.
How to:
On wine 0.9.2. i installed ie6 acording to the "manual method" described in the AppDB under "internet explorer" using ie6_overrides.reg
Next i installed Mplab 7.21 without having problems.
After this it not yet worked for me out of the box.
Then i used the forementioned method of Alexej -written in russian language- to manually register MPLab's DLL's as follows:
In a console window move to MPLAB's folder:
cd /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Programme/Microchip
cd "MPLAB IDE"
now register DLLs in "Core"
cd Core
wine regsvr32.exe *.dll
you need many clicks on OK after that.
next register DLLs in "Simulator"
cd ..
cd Simulator
wine regsvr32.exe *.dll
you need some clicks on OK after that too.
then register DLLs in "PicstartPlus"
cd ..
cd PicstartPlus
wine regsvr32.exe *.dll
again you need some clicks after that.
Eventually register still more DLLs
according to the MPLAB modules you need.
Mplab под Linux
by Alexey on Wednesday November 2nd 2005, 5:46
Извините, пишу по-русски.
Нужно:
Mplab 7.20 (или какая есть)
Wine 0.9
Ie6 (с sp1 или без - неважно)
Dcom98
arial32.exe
Делаю так:
- качаю, компилирую, ставлю сам Wine
- ставлю dcom98
- затем делаю wine regedit ie6_overrides.reg
скачал с www.kievinfo.com/2/ie6_overrides.reg - ставим для поддержки кириллицы arial32.exe (wine arial32.exe)
- далее ставлю сам ie6 в минимальной конфигурации
- только после чего ставлю Mplab, у меня есть PicStart+ и ICD 2, т.е. соответственно эти устройства выбираю при инсталляции
- после идем в каталог c:\Program Files\Microchip\Mplab Ide\Core\
- там делаем wine regsvr32 *.dll много раз тыкаем в "ОК"
- пускаем Mplab (wine Mplab.exe)
- все (или почти все)
Если при запуске пишет что-то про LangTool - сносим каталог .wine в домашнем каталоге и просто пускаем wine.
Если просто поставить dcom98 не удается делаем так:
- выполняем wine dcom98.exe /C /T:c:\\temp /Q
- из c:\temp копируем все dll файлы в windows\system (или system32)
- выполняем wine dcom98.exe /Q
После успешного запуска стабильно заработал PicStart+.
ICD 2 не работает, точнее не изменяет параметр источника питания (от ICD или от вашего устройства). Еще не разобрался.
Если открыт проект и происходит попытка ассемблирования - файл asm превращается в hex, но Mplab говорит Build Fail. Тоже не разобрался.
Пока остановился на picp и pikdev - меньше весят.
Только жаль что ICD простаивает.
Моя аська 230212110.
з.ы. Куда дели config файл??? Полночи лазил - так и не нашел!!!
MPLab IDE works, but...
by Johnny Cybermyth on Thursday July 14th 2005, 18:52
I can get the MPLAB IDE working as far as loading projects and IDE options, but will it call the assembler correctly? Answer: almost. It calls it correctly and the assembler will output files like it is supposed to but the output of the mpasmwin.exe assembler program never makes it back to the IDE. MPLAB complians:
Thread would not exit normally.
Could not read language tool output from pipe. (5)
If we could solve this piping issue, we'd be in business!
