The IDE has commands to preprocess, precompile, compile, update, link, run, disassemble, and check syntax. The IDE automatically chooses the compilers and linkers to operate on the appropriate files when you issue a compile or link command. The IDE uses the settings in the build targets within a project to determine how to process files and data. The Project Menu provides the commands you need to carry out this process.
See "Configuring Target Options" and "Compiling and Linking" for information on options for compilation, linking, and software generation.
