Creating and Running Programs

Introduction

This chapter describes how to create and run programs, called executable
program files. An executable program file is identified by its .exe extension.

Using a Project Branch

The Project branch functions as both a container for its child source files, header
files and executable program files, and the platform from which you can:

Open a window where you can edit project parameters.

Create new source and header files.

Execute the Build command to create new executable program files.

You can move an entire Project - along with its child source and header files - to
an Ultra5000 drive's Archives branch for storage.

Creating a New Project

To create a new Project do one of these:

Click Project in the Insert menu.

Click the offline Ultraware file, and then right-click Insert Project from
the pop-up menu.

A new project appears beneath the open Ultraware file in the Workspace window.
The default name of the new project is Project or (if Project already exists)
Project

n, where n is the lowest integer that creates a unique project name within

the selected path.
