Most computers can autolaunch the C exercise files direct from the browser, however in certain circumstances the computer/server configuration does not allow autolaunch. In these cases you will need to manually launch the C2C compiler and open the C exercise file.

Launching C2C files

The install program for this course will have installed both the C2C compiler and the C for PICmicro C exercise files onto your hard disk. If you have not run the install program you are advised to do this now.

The C2C compiler can be launched from the program files list.
Click on START, select PROGRAMS and MATRIX ELECTRONICS SERIES.
Click on C2C COMPILER to launch the compiler.

The C exercise files can be found in the 'C' sub directory of the folder into which C for PICmicros was installed.
("C:\Matrix\C4PICs\C4PICs\C" by default)

Some of the exercises require that .c2c project files are used. These must be created by you. For details on how to create project files see the section called "C2C project files" in the "Compiling and Running C programs" part of the course. It will be made clear when project files are required, it is not necessary for every program to be part of a project file.
