Library Compatibility with CodeVision

Our instructor wants us to write our programs for the 3Pi in Codevision and then use AVR Studio to debug and then download to the robot. I haven’t been able to get CodeVision to recognize the library files and asked the CodeVision tech if the Pololu libraries were compatible with CodeVision. He said no. Is this the case, or is there some workaround or libraries for the 3Pi that do work with CodeVision?

Hello,

We do not have any experience with CodeVision, but it is unlikely to work with the precompiled files that we provide, which were made with GCC. Also, our code is mostly written in C++, so I do not think it will be easy to make it work with the CodeVision C compiler. You would probably be better off just using it as a reference or trying to convince your instructor to let you use GCC.
