Hi there, just wondering if anyone knows if Delphi or Lazarus has options or the ability to output Intel formatted hex files?

It can't at the moment, unless you compiler for ARM-embedded. In that case, the compiler simply calls binutils' objcopy to convert a elf file to a ihex file

damn... ok i'm looking to flash some atmel atmega's but coding in pascal rather than ASM or C.....


EDIT.. nm i found exactly what i'm looking for... http://turbo51.com/ :D thanks anyways.

Seems very nice...pity I don't program 8051 chips! LOL

It almost makes me want to though... haha
cheers,

Actually, no there isn't an Atmel AVR compiler for FPC (yet). Many of us have expressed interest, but none of us have taken up the gauntlet to actually create on :(. I started working on it, but then realized it would be easier to simply build a pascal compiler for the AVR's then to bootstrap/edit FPC :(

PS: What you doing with AVR's, love working with them :)

It looks like fpk is working on it in the development trunk

Atmel and pascal, here you go: http://www.e-lab.de/AVRco/index.html 8)

I love you mang!

Actually, I use them for robotics, lighting control, and just about anything I can get my hands on to tinker with. Sure you already know, but SparkFun is having a "Freeday" (http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/news.php?id=305) up to $100 in free product as long as you pay shipping :).

Just because I love bragging, our local makers group http://www.makekc.org/ has been having fun making a rather large laberynth table that looks like a golf course hole and uses a soccer ball as the ball. Uses a WII fit to control via an AVR (well, ok they are using an Arduino (witch I hate) but its still an AVR). Quite fun to play with.

do you use pascal for any of your platforms? i use c but i am very interested to use pascal :)

mikroPascal is a good way for programming microcontrollers. :) I use C, but I heard mikroPascal is good.

"mikroPascal" is for picaxe only i believe. however looks good for pic tho :)

It's for ATMega, PIC and other micros as well, AFAIK.

hmm looks like you are right, and it looks pretty awesome.
