pic microcontroller 18f4550

im working with pic18f4550. i would like to know what will be the major differences when it comes for compilers which we use. can anyone help me out with this?

you can use any of compiler like xc8, c18 compiler and will need mplab ide in which this compler will get integrated. but you are going to use assembly lang. then no need to install anything.

i want to know the changes in programming which differs with compilers. i dont know assembly level language. preferebly i do use embedded c.

Basically programming in C language is same .I am using also using PIC18f4550 uC for my project.for coding purpose i tried MPLAB with c18 and mikroC Pro for PIC.
i moved to mikroC as i found it easier to use then the MPLAB.
the difference i found was that in mplab i had to #include the header files while in mikroc i just had to tick the library required.Also mikroC has a lot of easy to use libraries for various functions

in terms of programming lang. there is no any difference but in some compiler there are implemented some extra inbuilt function and some compiler doesn't.
and with respect to difference compiler have there own inclusion files and port defined types.
