| <body> <h1>Creating your project</h1> <p>You need to create a project to |
| contain your source code and related files. A project has an associated builder |
| that can incrementally compile source files as they are changed.</p> <p> |
| To create your project:</p> <ol> |
| <li>Click <b>File > New > Project</b>.<br> The New Project Wizard opens. |
| </li> |
| <li>Select <b>C++</b>.</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Standard Make C++ Project</b>.<br> You can also create a managed |
| make C++ project so that a makefile is automatically generated. For the |
| purpose of this tutorial, you will create a standard make C++ project which |
| requires you to provide a makefile in order to build the project.</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Next</b>.</li> |
| <li>In the Name box, type <b>HelloWorld</b>.</li> |
| <li>Leave the <b>Use Default Location</b> check box selected.<br> Note that |
| the location of the workspace folder where your project is saved is grayed |
| out in the Location box.</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Next</b>.</li> |
| <li>Click the Binary Parser tab.</li> |
| <li>In the <b>Binary Parser</b> list, click <b>PE Windows Parser</b>.</li> |
| <p>To ensure the accuracy of the C/C++ Projects view and the ability to successfully |
| run and debug your programs, select the correct parser is important. After |
| you select the correct parser for your development environment and build your |
| project, you can view the components of the .o file in the C/C++ Projects |
| view. You can also view the contents of the .o file in the C/C++ editor. |
| </p> |
| <li>Click <b>Finish</b>.</li> |
| <li>If a message box prompts you to switch perspectives, click <b>Yes</b>. |
| </li> |
| </ol> <p>Your new project is displayed in the C/C++ Projects view and in |
| the Navigator view. Your project is empty because you have not yet created |
| files for your project. You can now start writing the code for your HelloWorld |
| program.</p> <p><b>Tip:</b> You can view and modify the properties of your |
| HelloWorld project by right-clicking on the project in the C/C++ Projects |
| view and clicking Properties.</p> <p><a style="text-decoration: none" href="cdt_w_newcpp.htm"><img |
