This is an excellent IDE and Simulator. Speeds up development and module testing by orders of magnitude. I am using Silicon Labs MCUs, though, and have to fudge-factor too many things to make the code 'act' like an Atmel. But I cannot fathom the XML structure of the 'definition' file with MCUs. If there were a few hints available, I would like to help by writing an application to assist with adding 'roll your own' MCUs from other manufacturers (eliminating 25% of your complaints). abqab AT mail DOT com

Very nice software!Could you please add some mcu simulator support,like STC '1T' MCU or SST '1T' 8051 mcu simulator support!Thanks!

Very nice piece of software, and i appreciate it a lot.
would it be possible to have the ability for the user to parameter other MCUs, IE I use AT89S8252 a lot and cannot sim all of it.

Fantastic utility, Can you provide DS1307 Virtual Hardware and IC2 Bus interface routines, this is also required for EEproms
Thanks
Sanjay

For VirtualHW:
A. It is better if for the input / output can be changed, change it to normally "high" or normally "low".
2. Available for single LED panel that can be set and connected individual placement.
To all who have worked hard to make this application, thank you profusely.

This is a great piece of software; thanks for your effort and making it available for the rest of us!

Very grateful for this amazing application, and many, many thanks for being so generous with all your time and effort and for sharing all of this with the rest of the world.

Thank you for a great software, I just start to use and I enjoy work with it.
I would like to see 2 addition to the editor: 1. Case change. 2. block: delete, copy, insert.

Thank you!

> 1. Case change:
It's already there, try CTRL+U, CTRL+SHIFT+U, and CTRL+ALT+U.

> 2. block: delete, copy, insert
Something like that it also there, look at the editor status bar, you should see a label with "NORM" written in there, click on it and it will change to "BLK", then you enter the block selection mode.

Ah! I dont care how many MCUs it supports. I only wanted for 8051 and it seems this does everything for that.

I hate to use pirated Keil uVision. I do hate hate Windows equally.

Thanks to you guys for this wonderful piece of software.

That's the spirit! :-)

hi mcu8051ide is great simulator but it comes with few simulator tools.these tools for example lcd ,adc input and dc motor.I use it for education and i need those sim tools tnx(sorry for bad english)

Hi, version 1.4 introduces simulation of HD44780 based LCD displays, hopefully 1.5 will introduce the other things. If you wish you can write your own simulated hardware for MCU 8051 IDE, it's not too hard, I can tell you how, if you are interested, write me an email ... usually I don't eat people. :-) And there is no need to apologize for your English.

MCU8051IDE is great if you know its limitations. It has cost me quite some time to figure out the following:
1. I could not find any useful documentation, even after downloading the docs tarballs. This made it quite difficult to install (especially the many version and other dependencies of tcl-tk under Ububtu, where the file locations differ from the defaults). An html documentation page on the website would be very helpful.
2. I could not get the ASEM-51 assembler to work under the ide. The system crashes horribly whereas the ASEM-51 runs fine in stand alone mode. I already suggested to W.W. Heinz to include some doc on his side as well on this topic.
3. The assembler has trouble with the $ symbol ("here", i.e. the current location counter). E.g. a statement like "stack equ $" at the end of the dseg segment in combination with " mov, sp,#stack" causes the assembler to crash.
4. The "at xxx" suffix with dseg, cseg, etc. does not work. instead, I had to place an "org" following each seg statement

Thanks for the criticism, it's fixed in v1.4.2.
