[Usbpicprog-technical] Assertion failure with PIC16LF18K22

[Neil D. <ne...@da...>]

Hi,
I am using usbpicprog from the Ubuntu PPA at version 1.0.5-4 amd64.
The device I am working with, a PIC18LF26K22, produces the following
assertion when the device is selected.

pictype.h(433): assert "acc <= nbits" failed in GetBitSize().

Selecting a PIC18F26K22 (the 5V powered part) does not generate this
assertion.
The assertion dialog presents the options to Stop or Continue so is
this assertion non-fatal and am I OK to continue using the program?
Regards,Neil Darlow

Dear Neil Darlow,

It has been a long term since I worked on usbpicprog. I guess there is a 
problem in the xml file for the PIC18LF26K22 or it's interpretation.

I will certainly not harm to continue using the application, however I 
can't guarantee that the programming of this device will be 100% successful.

Regards,

Frans

Hi Frans,
I browsed the source code and determined, as you did, that it was a
problem with the XML file.
I reconciled the XML file with the PIC18LF26K22 Data Sheet and found a
number of errors and omissions (things like EEPROM size, missing
protection block settings etc.).
I've managed to create a working XML file that should suit my needs.
Given the diversity of the PIC ecosystem, if you ever decide to revisit
the project, it would be an idea to create the XML files from Microchip
header files using an automated mechanism.
Regards,Neil Darlow

Dear Neil,

Thanks for the message. Could you fork the github project and commit the
changed xml file, then I can merge it back to the official repo. If that is
too much work you can also send me the xml so I can commit the changes.

Regards,

Frans
