mikroC PRO for 8051 organizes
applications into projects consisting of a
single project le (le with the .mcp51
extension) and one or more source les
(les with the .c extension). The mikroC PRO
for 8051 compiler allows you to manage
several projects at a time. Source les can be
compiled only if they are part of the project.
In this reference guide, we will create a
new project, write code, compile it and test
the results. The purpose of this project is
to make microcontroller PORT0 LEDs blink,
which will be easy to test.
A project le contains:
• Project name and optional description
• Target device in use
• Device clock
• List of the project source les
• Binary les (*.mcl)
• Other les.
