4.5.2. Creating the CodeWarrior IDE project

Before you start the tutorial, make sure that there are no projects open in the CodeWarrior IDE.

To create the project:

  1. Copy the vfpsupport example project from the RVDS examples to a location of your choice, for example, c:\Myprojects\Tutorial. This copy is used for the rest of the tutorial, and is referred to as:

    ...\vfpsupport

    If you want, you can remove the build1, build2, build3, build5, build6, build7, and util subdirectories from your copy.

    You might also want to remove any files that are not required, such as *.bat, the .pdf file, and Make file.

  2. Select File → New from the main menu to display the New dialog box (see Figure 4.1).

  3. Select the ARM Executable Image stationery.

  4. Click Set... to display the Create New Project... dialog box.

  5. Locate your ...\vfpsupport directory.

    Note

    If you want to use this project to create stationery, you must create the project file in your ...\vfpsupport directory, rather then the build4 subdirectory (see Creating your own project stationery for more details).

  6. Enter the project name, vfpsupport.

  7. Deselect Create Folder.

  8. Click Save to close the Create New Project... dialog box and display the New dialog box updated with your entries (see Figure 4.5).

  9. Click OK. The project file (vfpsupport.mcp) and the Debug, Release, and vfpsupport_Data directories are created.
