New C/C++ Application Wizard: Name and Location
See Also
The New C/C++ Application wizard enables you to create a new C or C++
application project. The New C/C++ Qt Application wizard is similar, and
allows you to create a new C/C++ Application that uses the Qt libraries
and tools.
In the Name and Location page, you must set the following properties:
- Project Name. Specifies the display name of the project.
This name is also used to create the project folder.
- Project Location. Specifies the directory in which
the project will be created.
- Project Folder. Specifies the folder where you want to store the
project metadata.
You can also set the following properties:
- Project Makefile Name. You can change the default name of the project makefile.
If a makefile already exists in the project folder, the default name is Makefile-project.mk; otherwise,
the default name is Makefile.
- Create Main File. You can change the default name of the main program file, and select the
C, C++, or Fortran language from the drop-down list. By default the name is main and the language is C++. For Qt projects,
the language can only be C++.
- Development Host. You can select the local host or a remote development host
that you have previously set up. The project will be built and run on the selected development host.
- Tool Collection. You can select a tool collection that has been previously configured for the selected development host.
The tool collection will be used to build and run the project.
- Set as Main Project. Sets the newly created project as the
main project.
