Title: More Firefly/PB9
Post by: Peter Presland on September 06, 2008, 09:32:37 AM
Hi

I've just downloaded and done a bit of experimenting with Firefly. On trying to compile one of the sample projects I got an error to the effect that the paths to the compiler etc were all blank. They weren't. I had them correctly set to my PB9 directories and the 'default' box checked. I tried entering the same paths in the PB8 fields. The paths were found OK but resulted in a compile error. The program was using the PB8 option, expecting to find PB8 and returning an error when it found PB9.

Since I still have PB8 installed I tried entering the PB8 paths. Although I still had the PB9 paths set as the default, the program compiled OK with a message that it had used PB8. The program is in trial mode.

Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem here?

Hi Peter,

Once you set the compiler paths for PB9, PB8, etc... and check the "default" box it means that for all new projects that you create the compiler listed as "default" will be used. If you already have an existing project (e.g. the sample projects) then you need to change the compiler being used for that project via the "Project Properties". Each project can use a different version of the compiler.

I hope this answers your question unless I'm reading your question wrong.  :)
