Request for SF support for new chip 18F27Q10
Good afternoon David
I managed to land a few units of the relatively new chip, 18F27Q10.
Is it possible please to indicate if and when we can expect Swordfish to support these chips? They seem to be pretty feature rich at a very decent price.
Thanks
Bernard

Hi Bernard
Jerry has been carrying out some significant work on the compiler. I wont steal his thunder hear by saying what he has been up to - but I can see that this device is included in the auto generated device list for the next release.
We are hoping to release the update in the next few weeks...

It's my fault for the delay.
I've been working on getting the SDFileSystem.bas module changed around to use the SPI/SPI2 modules so that it'll work with other devices, and it's taken me a lot longer than I was hoping.
I finally got it all working this morning so it shouldn't be too much longer...

... and also the blame for anything I screwed up in the process!
There were a lot of changes made under the hood of the ICC asm code generator, so if you notice anything questionable please pipe up.
Same goes with the updated libraries... I tried not to break too much and retain compatibility with existing code but for some I had to make adjustments.
Microchip have a number of new and interesting 18F chips coming out soon (Q41, Q43, Q83/84) so it'll be interesting to see what they change next.

Thank you very much, Jerry for the massive effort that has gone into this update. I downloaded and installed it - works beautifully!!
There are many features of Swordfish that I like a lot - this update allows SF users to continue using the product for long time to come, using some of the latest chips.
Thanks a million - this is a great piece of work!!
