Building a project

Before you run any program in your application, you must build the project. To build your application project

• Select [Build] from the [Project] menu. Or click the  [Build] button on the toolbar.
• Or Select [Rebuild] from the [Project] menu. This will rebuild the entire project.
• Select [Run] Window from the [Run] menu. Or from the tool bar, click the  [Run Window] button. The project will be built before the [Run] Window appears.
• Select [AUTO mode test] from the [Run] menu. The project will be built before the [Operator Window] appears.

After the files have been compiled and linked, the project files are sent to the controller.

Status Pane

This window shows progress messages and error messages during project build. When errors occur during the build process, a message is displayed that includes the error number, program file name, and line number. Double click on the line with the error to go directly to the source code that caused the error.
