Hello To All,
Not much replies to this problem here...
Since, apparently, this bug will not be fixed by MikroE, we tried to solve the problem in another way, noticing that one may create a configurable "tool" on the toolbar, we created an executable program that accepts the project's path, reads the source files of that project, and creates the correct command with all necessary parameters to start the AVRFlash programmer, this time with the correct settings for the fuses (as they should have been originally).
After this program was completed, tests showed that the programmer performs correctly with the given -FUSE: parameter (so the problem is situated into the compiler, that does not forward the correct fuses to the programmer).
Then we added our program to the tools bar (through the setup window), and also this functioned correctly...as long the compiler stays open...
Unfortunately, after closing the compiler and opening it again, the tools icon disappeared again, although the setup window still shows the correct settings for that tools icon, but the button stays hidden.
So now we bumped onto a second bug, that makes "our solution" to fix that first bug...useless, so back to square one...
Besides this, we also noticed before that the calculated configuration registers (Fuse bits) are incorrect in the configuration window for the ATTINY841 controller, also the values stored into the .cfg file are incorrect, and needs to be corrected manually.
Granted, this is a rather new controller, so this bug was probably not yet noticed.
So at the end we run into three bugs within only one project, none the less we are still impressed about this software.
We still hope that those bugs will be fixed within a reasonable time, it should not take more than 8 years...
Kind regards,
Johnny
