Creating Applications

The Project Manager maintains the resources needed for creating an embedded application. The steps and features are explained in the following sections:

• Creating Projects - build a simple application and generate an object file or HEX output.
• Project Targets and File Groups - create application variants and organize the files that belong to a project.
• Configuration Dialogs - lists the dialogs to configure devices and toolchains.
• Multiple Projects - manage many projects within one µVision project environment.
• Tips and Tricks - use the advanced features of the Project Manager.

Note

• Architecture-specific information (like bank switching for 8051) can be found in the Getting Started User's Guide or Primer of the respective toolchain.
