Guys,

I have developed boatloads of code over the years using the V6 and V7 ICCAVR compilers. The one I run is the last 7.22C build, Advanced level, and it is activated by a dongle. I am getting close to retirement and I have a customer that I am willing to give source code to. However, I can't hand them my dongle (that doesn't sound right!) I still need mine to support other projects. And I would be happy to buy a license but I don't know where to get a copy of ICCAVR V7. Does anyone know a source or is anyone even willing to sell me their V7 Advanced dongle so I can give these folks code? I've tried sending emails to Richard but I think he has fallen off the earth.

Thanks,

Dan

Thank you!

Similar for a predecessor who passed on; took his source code then ported to GCC.

Is porting to AVR GCC an option?

IAR EWAVR?

CodeVisionAVR?

There's a LoB progression though you likely already know that.

If that's true then his executor can receive a request likely via their representative; possibly in the context of the STATE OF CALIFORNIA so has to be an attorney per that state's constitution.

IIRC, corporations are listed by Dun & Bradstreet; California corporations are likely in a STATE OF CALIFORNIA list.

You can still download a 45 day free trial full function, here: https://imagecraft.com/legacy/de...

My dongle stopped working, it think it died awhile back, like you I have not been able to contact anyone to fix/replace it.

So your the other user!

Its too bad its so hard to try to do the right thing! Richard's products have helped me make a lot of money and I'd really like to pass some back to him. I'll just have to see what I can do!

Good news! I had sent emails in the past but the one from a few days ago got through. Richard contacted me and provided a method of getting a licensed copy of V7. We should be good, thanks to you all, and a special thanks to Richard!

I still rock ICC 7!  I have a dongle for V8 but I didn't like the IDE they switched to. (NetBeans or something I think it's built on.)

Some projects (classic AVR) I actually maintain concurrent versions of firmware for ICC & GCC as I slowly transition.

All xmega stuff and newer is GCC.

 

Anyway, it's good to know I can still potentially keep ICC going if I kill or lose the dongle.
