bascom and fastavr

2005-03-29 by Geo

Hi,

Is anyone aware of the current status of these two compilers?
The Bascom mailing list search function at http://www.grote.net/bascom/index.html has 
never worked for me but this compiler seems to have been updated more recently (Dec 
2004) than fastavr (21 Feb 2004).
I have tried the demo versions - but both have bugs. Fastavr produces assembler code 
with labels so I can (eventually) trace the problems - but Bascom produces only hex/obj  
and requires disassembly before I can even start to find why the inbuilt routines don't 
work.
I would appreciate any comment on either compiler (don't bother advising me to use c :-)

I have used Bascom for a while now. It has worked well for me.
There is a Bascom list on yahoogroups.

I use Bascom for real, production quality, code without any problems. It's fast and the output is as good as I can write in assembler for general programming.

If you really need to inspect its output you can generate an Atmel Studio compatible .OBJ file and load that into studio for full debugging and a commented disassembly listing.
