CODE::BLOCKS is also for SDCC

[BALTAZAR]

  After trying some tweaks manually, I have finally integrated the Small Device C Compiler to CB successfully - (means without the annoying exception message). SDCC , which is actively built by our co-open source advocates is another fantastic release from the Open Source community. CB & SDCC really makes a very cheap development tool for microcontrollers including PICs from Microchip & MCS-51 89 series from Atmel. I have designed a PIC development board. I thought I would still need to write the IDE that would hook with my board, now everything is there which means my target clients need to pay only for the hardware.

are there any mistakes or enhancements needed in our build in support for that compiler ??

Dunno what you mean. But I installed the supposedly most stable release (v 1.0). During the installation, it detected SDCC but whenever I try to compile, gplink32 crashes during the linking stage. I had to tweak the configurations by removing the entries for the linker and instead put more entries to  the compiler exe paramaters. But if you have a version that interfaces smoothly with SDCC, kindly name it so I can download & try. cheers!
