After setting the microcontroller to be used for the conversion target project, and project type, name, and place of creation settings, click the [OK] button.

Remark 1.

When any subproject does not exist in a CubeSuite project, a subproject is not displayed.

Remark 2.

If you select [Backup the project composition files after conversion], immediately after the conversion the project source files and complete project are packed up and saved.

Remark 3.

See "Project Convert Setting dialog box" for details about each setting item.

(4)

Convert the CS+ project

The CubeSuite project is converted to the CS+ project.

 

A CubeSuite project is converted to a CS+ project according to the rule below.

-

A CubeSuite project is converted to a project with the same name as the original project. After conversion, the project file name will be "project name.mtpj".

Remark 1.

The project file after conversion is created in the folder the CubeSuite project file was placed in. If there is already a project file with the same name, "_number_" (number: 1, 2, ...) will be added to the file name.

Remark 2.

The build mode and build options information is not the target for conversion, if the build tool is different from the CubeSuite project file.
