I found out that pic wizard in compiler version 3.249 doesnt generate fuses anymore? Izzit my problem or CCS team decided to remove this funtion from the pic wizard?

It's probably a bug. I'm using 3.236 at the moment because I don't trust any of the later versions. 3.236 does generate the fuse list, except for the WDT fuse - for some reason it's missing the #FUSE in front of it. It's been a problem with several versions of the compiler.

I wouldn't report this bug to them because they probably won't respond anyway. I reported a CAN bug last July or August, and I still haven't received a reply. I think they're busy with version 4 of the compiler and are either too busy to care or plain don't care about the most recent version.

Hi Guys,

You are right, I did report it and got a very swift reply from CCS.
This is a bug in the current version and will be fixed in the next version. They also agreed to extend my maintenance to cover this anomaly.

Cheers

Mark

Yeah, this one bit me in the butt when I first started using 3.249. I knew my code was correct but the PIC just wouldn't run. After a few hours Evil or Very Mad

I started looking at the header files and found that only one fuse had been inserted. After I put my keyboard back together (got a BFH out when I noticed that) I added the correct fuses and went merrily on my way.
