Projects
The mikroBasic PRO for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 organizes applications into projects, consisting of a single project file
(extension .mbpds
) and one or more source files (extension .mbas
).
mikroBasic PRO for dsPIC30/33 and PIC24 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,
- device flags (config word),
- 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.
