I'm pretty confident I am following instructions to the letter but it's possible I am doing something wrong. But any assistance here would be great. MPLab X (5.20), XC32 (2.10), Arduino 1.8.10, Chipkit Library 2.10, Importer 1.0.6 (All the latest), Target Board is Pro MX 7. The latest importer states these versions should be acceptable because of the whole "or later" caveat. I've added photos showing I'm my directories (pretty sure they're all pointing to the correct location I'm trying to upload the Chipkit Wire - Master Reader .ino file. I select the Pro MX 7 in Arduino IDE, open the sketch, and save it to a different folder. Is that possibly the wrong step? Just spit balling. Is there some grand secret to making this work that I don't know and the internet refuses to tell us? Here's what that last photo says: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ArduinoBuilderRunner.preprocess(ArduinoBuilderRunner.java:109) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ArduinoBuilderRunner.preprocess(ArduinoBuilderRunner.java:84) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ChipKitProjectImporter.preprocessSourceProject(ChipKitProjectImporter.java:307) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ChipKitProjectImporter.execute(ChipKitProjectImporter.java:174) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.wizard.ImportWorker.importChipKitProjectFiles(ImportWorker.java:275) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.wizard.ImportWorker.createProjectFromChipKit(ImportWorker.java:189) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.wizard.ImportWorker.invokeImporterTasks(ImportWorker.java:144) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.wizard.ImportWorker.doInBackground(ImportWorker.java:94) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.wizard.ImportWorker.doInBackground(ImportWorker.java:72) at javax.swing.SwingWorker$1.call(SwingWorker.java:295) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:266) at javax.swing.SwingWorker.run(SwingWorker.java:334) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1149) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:624) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ArduinoBuilderRunner.lambda$findMainLibraryPaths$0(ArduinoBuilderRunner.java:191) at java.lang.Iterable.forEach(Iterable.java:75) at java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableCollection.forEach(Collections.java:1080) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ArduinoBuilderRunner.findMainLibraryPaths(ArduinoBuilderRunner.java:186) at com.microchip.mplab.nbide.embedded.chipkit.importer.ArduinoBuilderRunner.preprocess(ArduinoBuilderRunner.java:99) ... 14 more

Hello, I'd like to know if it's possible to program chipKIT uC32 in pure C using MPLAB X IDE? Is there a licensed debugger I must to choose when creating MPLAB project? Thanks.
