It is capable of detecting some very common errors such as, undefined variable, unused variable and syntax error.It has a lot of added features when compared to the older MPLAB IDE v8.xx.
TheA MPLAB X is not a new version of the current MPLAB IDE v8. Instead it is a brand new IDE based on Oracle s open-source NetBeans platform. I still see some people have not switched over in spite of all the advertisement form Microchip. Here are 8 (good) reasons why you should change to MPLAB X IDE. In each of the sections I have added images which you can click to enlarge. Docked workstation MPLAB X IDE has made a giant leap in terms of the docked workstation. This is something that has to be marked as the most important feature of the new IDE from Microchip. The older IDEs had all the windows dangling around and was really not capable of handling projects with multiple files effectively. Mplab X Ide Code Editor InYou can also minimize all the windows to have only the code editor in the entire screen. The minimized windows appear as a pop-up and vanish after you are done with it. Ease of use With this IDE you dont have to remember the path of almost any tool. The MPLAB X IDE already has all the frequently used tools in the front panel of the IDE. If you need more you could do so with a right click on the tools bar and choosing the customize option. Auto completion The IDE has the auto complete feature that can be used to complete known header files and port pins without having to type it fully. As you start typing there is a box that drops down to have all the possible combination. You can ignore in and keep typing or choose one form the list. Since it shows all the list of possibilities, you will know if what you are doing is legal or not, instantaneously. ![]() This can be a little distinctive at first but you will get used to it soon. Mark occurrences This is another new feature of the MPLAB X IDE. If you place your cursor on any variable or a macro, it highlights all the other instances of the same variable. ![]() ![]() Live syntax checker There is a syntax checker that is running in the background that interprets your code line by line and checks the correctness of the syntax and the logic.
