2.12 Setting the current project
A project can be in three states – the Current project, a Loaded project or an Unloaded project.
Since a workspace can contain many projects, only one of them can be the Current project at any time. This project is
the one that build actions and debug operations can be performed on (e.g. clicking the Build toolbar button will build
the Current project).
To set a project as the current project
Select one of the following operations:
• Select the project that you want to make active from the [Project -> Set Current Project] sub-menu, OR
• Select the project from the Projects tab of the workspace window. Right-click to display the pop-up menu and
select the Set as Current Project option.
If the project is Loaded, it is possible to open the project’s directory and view the files. It is also possible to change the
builder or debugger options for the project. A Loaded project can also have tool executions performed on it from the
Tools menu.
