## C/C++ Project and File Properties

TheProperties for <project_name> window allows you to change a project's build configurations, macros, and other project settings.

To change the settings for a project, right-click the project from the Project Explorer or Symbian Project Navigator views, and choose Properties from the context menu. The Properties for <project_name> window then show all the project settings. If you alter the settings, then the settings are applied as defaults for all files in the project.

The Carbide.c++ panels include:

- Build Configurations
- Macro Settings
- Project Settings
- other - additional panels may appear here as well. For example, CodeScanner.
