MMP Editor

- The MMP Editor allows you to view and modify your project definitions. Changes made in the MMP editor are automatically written to the project's .MMP file. You can view the .mmp file by selecting the project_name.mmp tab located along the bottom of the MMP editor.

+ The MMP Editor Overview tab allows you to view and modify your project definitions. Changes made in the MMP editor are automatically written to the project's .MMP file. You can view the .mmp file by selecting the project_name.mmp tab located along the bottom of the MMP editor.

The MMP Editor is shown when an MMP file is opened from the Project Explorer, C/C++ Projects, or Symbian Project Navigator views. The MMP Editor is shown in Figure 1. MMP editor fields are validated for existing or correct entries. For example, if the UID 2 field is blank the label is highlighted in red. If an error exists in the mmp file, the line where the error occurs is marked and also displayed in the Problems view.

Any changes made to the MMP file either in Carbide or using an external editor are detected. If the build is for emulation, these changes are detected and used automatically.

For other build types like GCCE you are presented with the Modified MMP Files Detected dialog (Figure 2) and asked which build action to take for each MMP file that has changed. Set the build option for each listed MMP file and click OK.

The MMP editor libraries window lists the libraries used by the currently selected build configuration in the selected project. The MMP editor libraries window is shown in Figure 1. Click on a library group to expand the list of libraries and show the related control buttons. You can add, remove or edit the list of libraries for each group. You can also move libraries up or down in the list.

MMP File Window

- The MMP file tab in the MMP editor window shows the source text of the mmp file. Changes made directly in the mmp file are reflected in related tabs of the MMP editor and changes made in editor tabs are written to the mmp file. Errors are identified in red and markers are placed in mmp files at the locations errors exist.
