Creating, Opening and Saving Projects

Top  Previous  Next

To create a new project, select File > New. The following dialog will appear:

 

tide_newpjt2

 

Platform: The platform on which your project will run.

Source library set: Tibbo libraries come in sets. Each set has a version number. Once you choose the library set for your project, it will be used until you change it. Tibbo will keep releasing new library sets. With each new release we will check if backward compatibility has been lost due to new features. If backward compatibility is lost, we will publish the new library set under the new version number. Old library sets will still be distributed and your project will keep compiling without any errors. For new projects, always choose the current library set as defined in the Library Reference.

Available project types: Only an Empty Project template is currently offered.

Project name: A short name for your project. TIDE will use this name to create a folder for your project, and also to create a project file (.tpr) within this folder.

Location: The folder which will contain your project folder.

Target address: Platform-specific. See platform documentation. The address of the target you will use for debugging and testing this project. This should be a reachable address with a live target. Your project will still be created even if you do not specify this parameter, but you will not be able to upload or debug until you specify the target using the Project Settings dialog.
