<p>A <b>launch configuration</b> defines the operational settings used by the Carbide.c++ tools  to launch and debug programs. A project must have at least one launch configuration, and can have as many as necessary. This enables you to develop and debug your project using various compilers (GCCE and RVCT) and different targets (emulator, on-device, and reference boards) as each launch configuration can be tailored to fit the intended target. </p>

<h4>Creating a Launch Configuration </h4>

<p>To create a default launch configuration for a project use the <a href="wiz_new_launch_config.htm">New Launch Configuration Wizard</a>. Using this method ensures that you have a working launch configuration for the project. You can invoke the New Launch Configuration Wizard for projects lacking a launch configuration by selecting the <b>Run &gt; Debug</b> (<span class="code">F11</span>) or<b> </b><b>Run &gt; Run</b> (<span class="code">CTRL+F11</span>) menu options, or clicking the <b>Run</b> (<img src="../../images/icons/btn_run.png" alt="Run icon" width="16" height="16" align="absmiddle" />) or <b>Debug</b> (<img src="../../projects/images/icon_debug.png" width="17" height="16" align="absmiddle" alt="Debug icon"/>) icons in the toolbar. If a project already has a defined launch configuration, selecting the  <b>Run</b> or <b>Debug</b> command calls  the   previously defined and last used launch configuration, bypassing the wizard entirely.</p>

<p>For emulator projects  the wizard simply gathers the data it needs from the project and creates an emulator launch configuration and launches the emulator. For on-device targets, more information is required, so the wizard asks for the missing information it needs, creates the  launch configuration, then downloads the executable to the device and launches it. Once the emulator or device is loaded with the executable, the debug session   commences. </p>

<p>Launch configurations come in several varieties, each designed for a specific purpose. You must choose one at the very start of the New Launch Configuration Wizard, so knowing the differences between them is important. Currently, the types to choose from include: </p>
