This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

I will go look. I forget that there is more here than just the mailing

Besides being able to look at the properties of an object, are there
any other debugging tools that are part of the IDE? I have looked but
I haven't seen anything I recognize as a debugging tool.

I will grab that. Thank you for the pointer.
