Projects
The mikroBasic PRO for 8051 organizes applications into projects, consisting of a single project file
(extension .mbp51) and one or more source files (extension .mbas).
mikroBasic PRO for 8051 IDE allows you to manage multiple projects (see Project Manager).
Source files can be compiled only if they are part of a project.
The project file contains the following information:
- project name and optional description,
- target device,
- memory model,
- device clock,
- list of the project source files with paths,
- binary files (*.mcl),
- image files,
- other files.
Note that the project does not include files in the same way as preprocessor does, see Add/Remove Files from Project.
