3.2 Creating MotoPlus Project
Start MotoPlus IDE from the Windows Start menu. The window of
MotoPlus IDE, similar to that of Visual Studio, appears.
To create a MotoPlus application, create a project first. The project is the
unit to manage the source files for each application program.
All of the source files required for the application are included in the
project. Double-click an existing project in Windows Explorer, then
MotoPlus IDE automatically starts and the project is opened.
To create a new project, go to the top menu bar, then click File > New >
Project. Then, the following window appears.
Type a project name (up to 32 single-byte characters which can be used
as a file name), then a folder to store the source file will be automatically
created (the folder can be located anywhere in the PC). Select the type of
the MotoPlus file to be created from “Project Settings”.
There are following options for “Project Settings”:
1. Executable program (default): Creates an *.out file. This is a normal
MotoPlus application which can be executed as a task of the
YRC1000micro.
2. MotoPlus library file: Creates a static library file (*.yrcmLib). This type
of library cannot be executed on the YRC1000micro but can be called
from MotoPlus application. Thus, import it from another project file to
use it.
When a new project is created, the source code template “mpMain.c”
opens. Use it if necessary. Delete it if not necessary.
