Setting up the shared project on Windows

This section only covers those new project attributes needed for cross-platform development.
In the Working Environment tool

  1. Select the Shared Source Working Environment in which you want to create the cross- platform project.
  2. Choose File > New Project > with Defaults....
    The Directory dialog appears.
  3. In the Directory dialog, navigate to and select the directory
    $WS_CROSS/sswe
    The Attributes of a New Project dialog appears.
In the Attributes of a New Project dialog
  1. Select the Version Control System node.
  2. From VCS Tool drop-down menu, choose RCS_CROSS.
    We suggest that you use the RCS_CROSS adaptor because, unlike other adaptors, it sets the affected repository files to writable for the user and the group when you execute commands that modify the Repository.
  3. Set all other new project attributes as needed and then press Ok to start generating the project.
    If you use standard libraries that have different names for different target platforms, do not enter these libraries in the Libraries Linked field when specifying your project targets. Instead, adapt your platform-specific Makefiles. To do so:
In your platform specific Makefile
Modify the following lines:
# platform specific library
OS_LIBS =
to
# platform specific library
OS_LIBS = -L <path to your library>
