Configuring the Compilers in the IDE

The IDE comes with a set of compilers that suit most development needs. Each compiler contains properties that affect how it generates code, such as whether to generate debugging information and which libraries to use. All compiler types are listed in the Project Setting window under the Compiler Types node.

To change the properties of a compiler:

  1. From the main window, choose Project Settings.
  2. In the Project Settings window, expand the Compiler Types node and select the desired compiler.
  3. Modify the property values to your preferred settings.

    The values you set will be used the next time you use the compiler.

You can also configure a compiler from the Explorer window. In the property sheet for an object, click the value for the Compiler property and click the ellipsis button (...). A Property Editor dialog box opens, in which you can modify the compiler properties.
