CREATING A NEW PROJECT

The first step is to create a project and a workspace in the MPLAB IDE. Typically, there

is a single project per workspace.

A project contains the files needed to build an application (i.e., source code, header

files, library, etc.), and their corresponding build options.

A workspace contains one or more projects, information on the selected device,

debug/programmer tool, and MPLAB IDE configuration settings.

MPLAB IDE contains a Project Wizard to help create a new project.

You will perform the following tasks as you create a new project:

Task 1, Select a Device ..................................................... page 24

Task 2, Select the Language Toolsuite ............................ page 25

Task 3, Name Your Project ................................................ page 26
