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.

Re: [oopic] Re: OOPic R Problem

If you compiled, but didn't download it would look like this. Please
give me a "blow-by-blow" account of every step that you took, compile,
build, download, and any messages that were given. What locale is your
Windows system using?
