Problem with EasyC

[Ryan_Henneman]

When I download a code, the EasyC program, on the computer not the robot, gets corrupted or something. After a code is downloaded, and I try to download anouther WITHOUT REINSTALLING THE SOFTWARE it says “The build failed” or something simular in the build window. I can’t figure out what is going on. I have The first easy-C and intellect loader v2.

What version of easyC are you running?

[Ryan_Henneman]

I’m using EasyC version 1.1 and Intellect Loader version 2.0.

You should be using the loader inside of easyC V1.1. Here is a couple of quick tests you can do. Open a new project (blank) and select the Build and Download icon. If it compiles correctly you will see a message saying Build Succeeded. If you do not get this message, your compiler is corrupted, try reinstalling the software. If you get the message, you can select OK and it will automatically open the loader and begin downloading the blank project. If you get an error message, there might be a problem with you COM port or the connection to the Vex controller (make sure it is ON). If you are still having problems, it is probably related to your PC. Try installing the software on another PC and still if you still have the problem. Hope this helps.

I tried the blank “build and download” and it didn’t work. I did install it on another computer and it did work in “Evaluation Mode”. I will uninstall EasyC and then Install it again. I’ll put up what happens ASAP. Thanks Dan Larochelle!

Reinstalling it worked!

[Ryan_Henneman]

The problem started again!
When I hit the “compile” button, a message comes up that says:

"There were linking errors! See ‘Output’ window for the deatails.

As each error is selected in the ‘Output’ window, the corrasponding
line conntaining the error is selected in the programing window."

In the “Output” window is says:
(Nothing).

In the “Build” window it says:
“Excluding: “…”…
BUILD FAILED: 24-02-2007 11:01:45”

i DON’T KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON, AGAIN!!:eek:
Please HELP!!!

OK, so here is what I am thinking, you have tried re-installing the software and you still got the same problems. Maybe it is in your settings and compiler. So after you UNINSTALL EasyC, then go into C:\program files\Intelitek delete everything in there. Then try reinstalling the software.

I am by no means a “profesional” an am definately not an “expert” so if doing what I ave stated above causes any damages to your computer or EasyC instal; Please do not blame me… It is best to ask a person in the “experts” list if they think that this is a good idea.

I transfered this from the thread:

I transfered it so people don’t think no-one answered.

@Ryan_Henneman

Deleting aplication data after you uninstall it shouldn’t mess it up. I will try that. But what I don’t get, it took it 2 or 3 months for the problem to come up again.
s0FaB0y, why did you start a new thread instead of posting in the old one?

This is, also, from Re: Problem with EasyC -Orig. POsted By Ryan_Henneman.

Try to open up a blank project and select the compile icon. If the project compiles correctly, they you problem is some where in your code, maybe a missing variable definition or a bad name. If a blank project does not compile correctly, then you may have a problem with the installation of the C18 compiler. If you uninstall easyC and reinstall it, this should work fine. Hope this helps.

[Ryan_Henneman]

Tried it, didn’t work.

Are you installing to C:\Program Files\Intelitek\easyC or are you changing the install path.

@kingofl337

Are you installing to C:\Program Files\Intelitek\easyC or are you changing the install path.

1. No, I am not changing the path

2. I fixed it, FINALY!!!
