This bootloader is compatible with Microchip's HID bootloader,
which is available in Microchip application libraries. The
original Microchip bootloader is written in C and targeted for
Microchip C18 compiler. It consumes 4 kB of the precious PIC
program memory, which means already 1/4 of the total available in
18F24K50. This bootloader however is written in ASM, and consumes
less than 2 kB, leaving more space for the actual application.
This beautiful piece of code is written by a Japanese guy SAKA,
with some modifications by me for use with JAKADAPTER.

Bootloader switch must be connected on pin RC2 with external
pull-up. With the JAKADAPTER, this means keeping joystick 1 fire
button pressed during USB cable plug-in. In addition to RC2
pull-up, only the VCC and Vusb bypass capacitors are required. See
example schematic diagram below.
The code uses internal oscillator with sync to USB clock. The
config registers are set according to image below:
