begineer to mplab c language need help .
I am trying to run this example but it failed.

This information is used by the compiler to link all the hardware specifics and
source programs together.
#include <16f877a.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#use rs232(baud=9600,xmit=PIN_B0,rcv=PIN_B1)
main()
{
printf(“Enter characters:”);
while(TRUE)
putc(toupper(getc()));
}

the error messages are " #use " and "printf" undefined.
Can anyone tells me what is the problem ? thanks

This code and its fragments are not from MPLAB C18 - it's the for the CCS compiler.

You will have to modify the code and read the libraries documentations for the MPLAB C18.

If use MPLab, just ignore this example and find another example that compatible with MPLab.

Yup, if you use MPLAB, then try those compiler compatible with MPLAB such as HI-TECH, C18. Can CCS be integrated with MPLAB IDE?

oh.okay
then I would like to ask is it coding for CCS COMPILER AND HI-TECH are the same ?
thanks

Yes, CCS can integrate with MPLAB IDE. They have command line interface for different IDE.

If you do not wish to purchase the CCS with IDE, the alternative will be the CLI version.

The on-board functions and defines are not the same. You might need to modify them. Read the manuals of both compilers.
