Visual C++ 2010 :: Error MSB8009

Created By: Hussein Nosair

Date: 3/31/2011

IDE: Visual Studio 2010

Language: Visual C++ 2010

Project Platform: x64

Windows: Windows 7

 

Error:

Error    MSB8009: .NET Framework 2.0/3.0/3.5 target the v90 platform toolset. Please make sure that Visual Studio 2008 is installed on the machine.    C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.CppBuild.targets

Cause:

Platform Toolset is set to v90

Solution:

Set Platform Toolset to v100

1. Select one of your project files. This will make sure that project is selected

2. Click Project > {name.of.your.project} Properties…

3. Expand Configuration Properties

4. Click on General

5. Locate Platform Toolset option on the right hand side

6. Click on the v90

7. Click on the drop down list arrow to your right

8. Select v100

9. Click OK to exit

 

How to Increment the nominal value of the Watchdog timer of PIC16F8xx

The most obvious reason of increasing the nominal value of WDT is to accommodate the complete code execution of your firmware including the use of Interrupt service subroutines.

The WDT has a nominal time-out value of 18ms. That is, the PIC will reset/restart the firmware execution from beginning (origin) every 18ms.

The purpose of WDT is to restart the microprocessor operations incase the microprocessor stop executing instructions due to internal hardware conflicts or infinite loop within the Firmware code.

To increment the nominal value of the WDT, one must assign the prescaler of TMRO (timer zero) to WDT. This is done be setting bit 0 of OPTION_REG register (aka. PSA bit) to 1.

PSA = 1;

Next, you need to set bits 0, 1, 2 of the OPTION_REG register (aka. PS0, PS1, and PS2). To do so, you need to look at the POSTSCALER rate select bits table in the PIC manual.

Ex: In this example I am going to assign TMR0 postscaler to WDT with a ration of 1:128.

PSA = 1; // assign prescaler to WDT

PS0 = 1; // select 1:128 scaler

PS1 = 1; // select 1:128 scaler

PS2 = 1; // select 1:128 scaler

WDT output result:

WDT timer-out = nominal value * prescaler

WDT time-out = 18ms * 128

WDT time-out = 2304 ms

WDT time-out ~= 2.3 sec

Thus, the PIC will reset every 2.3 sec.
