    Compiling for different mcus

    1 out of 5 stars Date: Oct 19 2026

    Summary: I will never use this tools and I sell my PIC32 on ebay or so. The supporters feel like gods. They are unfriendly. If you google you can recognize it.
    There is no real C++ support. It is half done.

    Positive: Really nothing ! The GUIs are completely overloaded ! The same for the VS Code extensions from MPLab.

    Negative: The xc compilers are bad. I have a Makefile. The port of my library Atmega328p with AVR Toolchain: 20 minutes
    The port to arm 20 minutes.
    The port to xc32 compiler. More than a day and nothing works.
