An .EXE program typically has a single executable component. Unlike GUI -application targets there is no application information file, and in most -cases a resource file will not be needed.

-

Under WINS/WINSCW, the C++ source is compiled to object files in the build -directory; these are then linked, together with standard libraries, into the -release directory. You may run the program directly from the release directory.

-

Under ARM targets, the C++ source is compiled using a native compiler, -and then linked into a .exe in the release directory. -You may then transfer the program to the target machine and execute it.

mmp project specification

For an EXE -target, only a minimum of essential information need be specified:

    -
  • Specify the TARGETTYPE line -as:

    TARGETTYPE exe
  • -
  • Specify the UID as -zero in a UID line:

    UID 0

    EXEs -do not strictly speaking need a UID value. However specifying zero suppresses -a build tools warning.

An example of the project file for a console program is given -below

TARGET HelloWorld.exe -TARGETTYPE exe -UID 0 -SOURCEPATH . -SOURCE HelloWorld.cpp -USERINCLUDE . -USERINCLUDE ..\CommonFramework -SYSTEMINCLUDE \Epoc32\include -LIBRARY euser.lib
