clock error in mikroC

[bbgil]

device clock cannot be zero

Hi. I an newbie in c and mikroC and i always got this error when compiling. "device clock cannot be zero". this is the code:
#include <P16F877.h>
#include <delays.h>

void main ()

{
INTCON = 0;
PORTB = 0;
PORTA = 0;
TRISA = 0xFF;
TRISB = 0;

while (1)
{
while (250);
PORTB=PORTB^1;
};
}

What does the error mean? Any help is appreciated thank you

mikroc clock

Hi,
With most C compilers for micros, you have to tell the compiler what clock speed you are running your microcontroller at.
I'm not sure about Micro C, but somewhere in your help file, or documentation you should be able to find how to do this.
According to their docs you have to set this value in an edit box. It looks as though you do this when you create a project.
Here is a link to their documentation, just in case you didn't get it with your compiler:
**broken link removed**
I found the info in Creating First Project in mikroC for PIC
Hope this gets you going.

Hi, I'm little late but hope not too late. You should choose proper clock freq. You can find this option in Project/Edit project menu.
