Trouble Compiling setup8580.asm

[davotron]

Hello,

I am a newbie here, it is true, but have toiled with micro's and PICs over the years, but am having problems re-compiling my SID application.  I wish to run the MidiboxSID V2 software, and so edited the setup file to accommodate my minimal control surface.  I believe I essentially need to build the setup_8580.HEX and send it over SysEx, using MIOS studio, to the core - this seems like the most straight forward method.

I run into problems when I try to build the setup_8580.hex file from the assembler file.  I firstly tried the "traditional" MPASM method on windows; and after adding all the .inc and .h files to the project, got "symbol not previously defined" (among other) compiler errors.

I then switched to GPASM on my mac, and again, after playing with directories and getting .inc and .h files in the right places get the same "symbol not previously defined" errors for various things like "BANKED" and "STATUS".

Am I going about this the right way?!  i.e. compiling the setup.. file?  I'm a bit unsure about the Xcode method, although I'd like to understand it more - I used to use Xcode to basic build audio units, I'm not sure what I'm trying to achieve with Xcode - is it to compile a HEX file or a Sys ex file etc?

Any help would be fantastic, it's such a good ongoing project, I wish to get the fundamentals and then expand on it.

I compiled gputils 0.13.6 on OS X (as there is no compiled package as of yet) and installed and it works just fine, if anyone else was looking to assemble code for p18f4685's using gpasm on OS X.
