<h2>Running a Program</h2>
<p>Use the <b>Run</b> command (<img src="../../images/icons/btn_run.png" width="16" height="16" align="absmiddle" />) to execute a program normally, without debugger control. If the target is an emulator, the emulator is launched and the program installed. Use the emulator controls to run the program within the emulator environment. If the target is not an emulator, the program is installed and can be run on the device like any other program.</p>
<p>When starting the program for the first time, there are two types of launch configurations that you can choose between: </p>
<ul>
<li><b>Run As > Symbian OS Application</b> <em>— </em> select this option to create a new run <a href="../../projects/launch/launch_configs_overview.htm">launch configuration</a> for the project or run the the first launch configuration it finds in the run launch configuration list (starting at the top of the list). Basically, this is a shortcut to help you start debugging immediately.</li>
<li><b>Open Run Dialog... </b><em>— </em>enables you to define one or more <a href="../projects/prj_debug_config.htm">launch configurations</a> for this project.</li>
</ul>
