    13 to build EXEs</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

    14 <p>An .EXE program typically has a single executable component. Unlike GUI

    15 application targets there is no application information file, and in most

    16 cases a resource file will not be needed.</p>

    17 <p>Under WINS/WINSCW, the C++ source is compiled to object files in the build

    18 directory; these are then linked, together with standard libraries, into the

    19 release directory. You may run the program directly from the release directory.</p>

    20 <p>Under ARM targets, the C++ source is compiled using a native compiler,

    21 and then linked into a <filepath>.exe</filepath> in the release directory.

    22 You may then transfer the program to the target machine and execute it.</p>

    23 <section><title>mmp project specification</title><p>For an EXE

    24 target, only a minimum of essential information need be specified:</p><ul>

    30 a build tools warning.</p> </li>
