Since uVision does not support
__BUILD__
I need a kind of BUILD-Counter which increments automatically. The Build should be an array of chars which can be included into the project. Any idea?
Why not?
(I'm sure there are plenty of reasons - but which one is yours?)
What do you mean? Reason for what? Not programming Windows?
I don't think I could manage to be absolutely 100% purely an embedded programmer. There are too many free compilers and I too often have ideas I want to try and that should/must be run on a Windoze, Linux or BSD box.
I can select gcc, Borland, Watcom or a couple of other reasonably good - and free - compilers. Then there is Perl, PHP, Python, ...
Without the ability to create utilities and customize our environments, a lot of the joy of this job niche is lost.
I understand your point of view. In the earlier days, I also used to program with TurboC, Borland-C and ever VB. But because I'm coming from the hardware corner, I prefere to develop hardware and software. In cases like this, I'm looking around for some help ;-)
