Information in this article applies to:

• µVision Version 2.07

QUESTION

I have created a HEADER FILES group under my TARGET folder. Then I try to add .H files to the group. However, the .H file extension is not listed as an option. What is the proper way to add header files to the project structure in µVision?

ANSWER

There is no requirement that you add header files to your project. You may want to add them so you can easily locate and open them for reference. Note that you can right-click on a #include filename and open that file.

To add a header file to your project...

1. Right-click the Project Group you want to add the file to and select Add Files to Group... from the pop-up menu.
2. Select All Files (*.*) from the Files of Type list.
3. Select the header file you wish to add to the project.
4. When prompted to select the file type, choose Text Document File.
