EasyPIC7 - VisualGLCD project memory size

[amalawi]

Hi,

I have EasyPIC7, mikroC compiler, and VisualGLCD program. I also have a GLCD project that contains 16 screens.

When I try to compile the project, It gives errors about 'No enough RAM' !?

and I do not see any indication about the requirements for the whole project (16 screens). how many bytes it needs (either ram or flash)

Should I use another PIC18, other than the one supplied with EP7 (PIC18F45k22)? Am I missing something here?
Regards,

Ala'a

Hello,

First thing which could significantly reduce RAM occupancy, is to use static property for all objects that will not change in run time.
If you have a constant object on the screen, set it's static property on true, and this object will be stored in ROM instead of RAM.

In order to see how many RAM is required for you project you will need to compile your project first, because there is no way of determining it before successful compiling.
You could select chip with more RAM memory in Project Settings window and then try to compile it. That way you can check will some other MCU suit the needs of your project.

Best regards.
