MPLAB IDE Desktop

Open

Add an existing project to the workspace and set as active. Opens the Open Project

dialog (see Section 13.10 “File Management Dialog”).

Close the current project in the workspace. You will be prompted to save the current

project before closing.

Closing a project does not close the workspace. Use Edit>Workspace>Close

to close

the workspace.

Set Active Project

Select a project as the active project in the workspace. For more on active projects, see

Section 4.9 “Using Multiple Projects in a Single Workspace”.

To enable Quickbuild, select None.

Quickbuild (filename)

Build a single assembly file using MPASM assembler without having to create a project

(no linker). None/Enable Quickbuild must be selected under Set Active Project. The

assembly file must be open in a file window and the window must be active.

There may be assembler limitations with this procedure. See

Section 10.4 “Limitations”.

Clean

Removes all intermediary project files, such as object, hex and debug files, for the

active project. These files are recreated from other files when a project is built.

Build All

Build the project by compiling/assembling all files. A project must be open before this

item will appear.

Make

Build the project by compiling/assembling only files that have changed since the last

build. A project must be open before this item will appear.

Build Options

Set and view options for the active project and individual files using the Build Options

dialog (see Section 13.5 “Build Options Dialog”).

Save Project

Save the active project.

Save Project As

Opens the Save Project As dialog. (See Section 13.22 “Save Project As Dialog”.)

Add Files to Project

Insert files into the active project. (See Section 13.10 “File Management Dialog”.)

Depending on the type of file, MPLAB IDE will sort the files into the correct type within

the project window tree.

Add New File to Project

Requests a name for the new file in a dialog (see Section 13.10 “File Management

Dialog”). On Save, the file is added to the project and a new file window is opened.

Remove Files from Project

Remove (delete) files from active project. Files are not deleted from the directory.
