Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Project menu, New Project command
 
     Choose New Project to define a new PWB project. The New Project
     dialog box displays the following options and commands:
 
     Project Name
          Specifies the name of the project. The base name you specify
          in the Project Name text box is used as the base name of the
          project makefile, the project status file, and the main
          project target.
 
          For example, if you type 'SAMPLE' in the Project Name box and
          select a DOS EXE project template, PWB creates the SAMPLE.MAK
          and SAMPLE.STS project files. The project builds SAMPLE.EXE.
 
     Current Runtime Support
          Lists the current run-time support. The run-time support
          determines the run-time libraries that are used for the
          project, the target environments, and the types of executable
          files that can be supported.
 
     Current Project Template
          Lists the current project template. If you have changed
          language or utility options or customized the template, PWB
          displays '(modified)' after the template name.
 
     Set Project Template
          If the current run-time support and project template do not
          match the type of project you want to build, choose Set
          Project Template to select the appropriate run-time support
          and project template.
          See: ◄@template.None
               ◄cl.hlp!pwbc.template
 
     After you have specified a project name, run-time support, and
     project template, choose OK. PWB then displays the Edit Project
     dialog box, where you can specify the source files that are needed
     to build the new project.
