3.2 CREATING THE PROJECT

This section describes the process of creating a project and workspace in MPLAB IDE.

In any particular folder, one project and one workspace are present.

A project consists of files that are used to build an application (source code, linker script

files, etc.) along with their association to various build tools and build options. The

workspace consists of the following features:

• One or more projects

• Information on the selected device

• Debug tool and/or programmer, open windows and their location

• Other IDE configuration settings

MPLAB IDE provides a Project Wizard to create new projects.

3.2.1 Creating the Project

Using the Project Wizard involves four steps:

• Selecting the Device

• Selecting the Language Toolsuite

• Naming the Project

• Adding Files to the Project

Use the following procedures to complete each of the four steps.

Note: These instructions presume the use of MPLAB IDE v8.10 or later.
