    <p>Background:</p> <p>I am programming an <a href="http://www.atmel.com/devices/atmega328.aspx" rel="nofollow">ATmega328</a>. I can't stand the Arduino IDE, so I prefer using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode" rel="nofollow">Xcode</a> for writing code. However, I have found all of the options available online for using Xcode to actually upload sketches to Arduino to be convoluted at best and have not been successful in trying to implement them.</p> <p>Current Method:</p> <p>What currently works well for me is to use Xcode strictly as a debugger, and 'creating' stripped down versions of Arduino classes when I need them so the debugger doesn't freak out when I put in lines of code specific to Arduino. For example, I have a Serial class in my Xcode project which has the following functions, which work just fine:</p> <pre><code>void Serial::print(int myInt) { cout &lt;&lt; myInt; } void Serial::println(int myInt) { cout &lt;&lt; myInt &lt;&lt; endl; } </code></pre> <p>I do the same for strings, and whatever other standard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++" rel="nofollow">C++</a> datatype I may need to print.</p> <p>This way, any time I want to put <code>Serial.print</code> within a function in another class I'm working on, I can debug strictly from within Xcode without opening the Arduino IDE. I can also create a "fake" class for <code>pinMode</code>, etc.</p> <p>Issue:</p> <p>I would like to do this with the <code>byte</code> datatype used in the Arduino environment. I am taking an object-oriented approach to this program, and it threatens to eat up the precious RAM on my little Arduino. So, in order to save space, I'm converting all my <code>int</code>s to <code>byte</code>s and so forth.</p> <p>But, I assume (and my compiler tells me) that I can't subclass <code>char</code>, or <code>int</code>, or any other basic types. I don't see how I can start using statements like "<code>byte a = 2</code>" or something similar with my current (somewhat convoluted) work-around method.</p> <p>Essentially, I want to trick Xcode into thinking <code>byte</code> is the same thing as <code>int</code> for all intents and purposes.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
