Single-user Project Setup Wizard

  • To start the Project Setup Wizard, in the Launch Pad, choose Project > New Project > with Wizard....

In the Project Setup Wizard
The Wizard starts by asking you to select how you intend to use the new SNiFF+ Project.
  • Accept the default selection, Standard Setup, and press Next.

  • The "Select development task" page appears.
    In the remaining steps, we will refer to the names of Wizard pages. You can find a page's name in the title bar of the Wizard.
In the "Select development task" page
  • Select Create a new SNiFF+ Project from scratch and press Next.

In the "Your development organization" page
This tutorial is for single-user/single platform development without CMVC, so:
  • accept the defaults (No/No/None) and press Next.

In the "Select file types" page
  • Select C/C++ and press Next.

  • Note that, after project setup, you can add new standard file types (like the ones in the "Additional File Types Column"), or create and add your own.
In the "Specify Private Working Environment" page
You are asked to specify your Private Working Environment (PWE) root directory.
  1. Press Browse, and in the Directory dialog, navigate to <PICO_DIR>/user and double-click on it and then press Select.
  2. In the PWE name field, enter a name for the PWE, e.g., pico .
    Notice that your username is entered next to the enabled Owner button. SNiFF+ needs your username to correctly handle permissions. Being the owner of the PWE means that you are the only one who is allowed to modify the working environment's attributes.
  3. Press Next.
In the "Create New SNiFF+ Project" page
SNiFF+ has set your Project root directory to
<PICO_DIR>/user . Also by default, Create Subprojects is enabled.
  1. Press Browse...
  2. In the dialog that appears, select pico , press Open and then Select.
    pico is entered in the Project name field. We suggest that you accept the default project name.
  3. Select the Use SNiFF+'s Makefiles checkbox.
  4. Press Next.
In the "Project Setup Summary" page
This page summarizes your specifications for the new SNiFF+ C project and required Working Environments.
  • Make sure that your Project Setup Summary page is similar the following. If it isn't, please go back to the beginning of the Wizard and start again.

  • Click for full size, then use Back button

  • Press Finish.

  • SNiFF+ will now create the new
    pico project and all its subprojects.
  • In the dialog that appears asking if you want to generate cross reference information, press No.

  • When SNiFF+ is finished, it opens the new project and displays its structure and contents in the Project Editor.

        Note
        If you did not delete the browsing-only project in the last part of the C Tutorial ( Deleting the project), the Project Description Files of the browsing-only project and its subprojects will appear in the File List of the Project Editor (with extension .proj ). You can safely ignore these files.
