Makefile Wizard: Enter Base Directory

See Also

On the Enter Base Directory page of the Makefile Wizard, you specify the directory where you want the IDE to execute the make command.

In most cases the base directory is the location of both the makefile and the source tree. You can put your makefile in the base directory and your source files in another directory. However, if you do so, you can execute the make command on the makefile from the IDE only if you set the Build Directory property of the makefile to the base directory.

Base Directory

  1. Type the path name of the base directory in the text field, or click the Browse button to display the Choose a Directory dialog box.
  2. When you have specified the base directory, click Next.
