MCBSTR730 User's Guide

Creating a Project

The required steps for creating a project and application programs are:

  1. Select the ARM Toolset that you want to use for your project.
    The default configuration is the RealView Toolset and the information below is based on selecting the RealView Compiler.
  2. Create a New Project File with the µVision menu command Project — New Project.
    Select a microcontroller from the Device Database®. The MCBSTR730 Board comes with the ST STR730FZ2, however, you may also use it to develop code for other STR73x device variants since the STR730FZ2 represents a superset of several other STR73x devices.
  3. Add Startup Code from the folder ..\ARM\RV30\STARTUP\ST to your project. After selecting, µVision prompts with the following dialog:

    Copy Startup dialog

    Answer Yes since this startup code works with most STR73x projects.

  4. Add your own Source Code to the project using the µVision editor (or any editor of your choice) by either:
    • Right clicking the mouse in the Project Window on a group and select Add Files to Group from the context menu.
    • Or

    • Opening the Project — Components, Environment and Books — Project Components dialog.
      Within this dialog, you may create and organize files into groups, or create other project targets with different tool configurations.
