[File] area

The names of the following files are listed in the order that the files are input to the linker.

-

Object module files which are generated from the source files added to the selected main project or subproject

-

Object module files which are added directly to the project tree of the selected main project or subproject

-

Library files which are added directly to the project tree of the selected main project or subproject

 

The default order is the order that the files are added to the project.

By changing the display order of the files, you can set the input order of the files to the linker.

To change the display order, use the [Up] and [Down] buttons, or drag and drop the file names.

Remark 1.

When the mouse cursor is hovered over a file name, the path of the file appears in a popup. If the file is on the same drive as the project file, then it appears as the relative path; if it is on the different drive, then it appears as the absolute path.

Remark 2.

Object module files which are generated from newly added source files and newly added object module files are added after the last object module file in the list. Newly added library files are added to the end of the list.

Remark 3.

When the file is dragged and dropped, the multiple files that are next to each other can be selected together.
