Hi all.

Im have just open my new RIDE (version 06.10.22) for the first time and try to create a new project, so i follow the "RIDE-ST7 Overview and Getting Started" (March 2005).

Once i choose to make a new project i can select the type of application in the very first window called "Project". This doesnt appear in my mannual. What is the difference between en "application" and a "programmer project"? Is there a new mannual with this explained? Where?

Thanks for all.

Jorgem.

Here is a very handy website.
I hope that it can help you further.

I prefer for assembler, but C is even good.

The different between them is that an application-file has an aof extension (even more : aox, hex), and gives the options from your project (I think) This file is what you need to write in your uC.
this is what i found in the help-index :
"To use the virtual simulator it is essential to compile the application with options set to produce a
*.aof file which includes debug information such as line numbers and symbols."

A Project file, (.prj extension) is the project where your stuff gets in, the first time it makes automatically an app-file,
but you can import more.

A "Programmer Project" application is a RFlasher project. It can be used for production. See the GettingStartedRFlasher document in RIDE for more information.

What you want is the "Project" application, which allows to compile, assemble, link, etc. See the GettingStartedST7 for more information.

Best Regards,
