Caution: Once a project is created as Debug only, it cannot be converted to a standard, Workbench buildable
project. Neither can an existing standard project be converted to Debug only.
8. When you are finished, click OK to create the project.
The project name you typed, by default, becomes a folder containing two files—project_name.dwp
and project_name.dwo (optionally you can specify any name for this folder). From this point on,
all the project files and information defaults to this folder or one of its subfolders. For example, a
project named CrossBar has a project file named Crossbar.dwp.
Note: Creating a new project automatically closes the active project, if one is open, and asks you if you
want to save any changes if there are any.
2.3.1.1

Debug-only Projects

If you select the Debug-only option when you create the project, there are some Workbench
features that will be unavailable when you open the project.
There are no source files available since the Workbench does not do the builds, and there is no
way to add source files to a Debug-only project. The conventional options on the Project
menu are replaced with the option Specify Debug-only UOF files.
The Project Workspace Fileview tab does not display the tree elements Assembler Source
Files, Compiler Source Files, or Macros since the Workbench does not associate source files
with the Debug-only project.
Select Specify Debug-only UOF Files from the Project menu. When you select the Debug-only
option, the dialog box shown in
If you try to start debugging without specifying a uof file, or if the uof or any list file identified in
the uof file is not readable, errors will occur and debugging will not take place. If a list file cannot
be found in the location specified in the uof file, the user is prompted to browse to the correct
location for the list file. This can occur if the list file has been moved from where it was when the
uof file was created or if the build was done on a different system from the one where the
Workbench is being run.
Similarly, if the user executes a Go To Source command but the source file cannot be found in the
location specified in the uof file, the user is prompted to browse to the correct location for the list
file.
The user also has the option to delete all file paths that were saved by the Workbench, as previously
described. This may be required if the user moves the list and source files to different locations. To
delete saved file paths, click the Delete Paths button.
