Hello,

I have in plane to switch from Windows to Linux (possible SuseLinux) and I want to know which tools can be used for development. I used microcntroller from Microchip 12F, 16F and 18F models. Also the programs that I write are in C.

What I need:
- good editor,
- C compiler,
- emulator (for debug) like Proteus
- software for downloading the firmware into uC like MPLAB

Any ideea is welcomed.

Thanks
ADi
 

You can find here a compiler, which says that "Work is in progress on supporting the Microchip PIC16 and PIC18 series.":
http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/

Also, I think Hi-Tech has linux versions for its PICC compilers:
**broken link removed**

There are some IDEs, search on Google for: gputils, gpsim, pikdev, piklab.

I'm not sure that you'll find a good programmer/debugger like ICD2 or PICKit2 for Linux...

Some time ago, I tried to switch on Linux, but I couldn't make it my friend so I'm still with Windows XP.
 

After I read about the Pikdev and Piklab it seems to be better the Piklab. Also this IDE support the ICD2 for program and debug.

Also the SDCC it seems to be a good ideea to compile in C.

A simulator will be also good :D.

Any ideea which Linux version will most suitable for develop in emmbeded.

Thanks bld for suggestions.
