After readding a previous thread ( that became very tense at the end), I decided to make a try and put here the result.
I tested it with my Atmel T89C51CC01 source.
1 - Create an empty project,
File -> new -> project -> create an empty project
2 - Give it a name: MyApp
Folder to create in: C:\SDCC-MM\MyApp (C:\SDCC-MM is my working dir for SDCC work)
Resulting filename: C:\SDCC-MM\MyApp\MyApp.cbp (correct the path : MyApp subdir name duplicates)
next >
3 - Compiler: SDCC Compiler
uncheck -> Create debug configuration
check -> Create release configuration : MyApp
Output dir : C:\SDCC-MM\MyApp\
Objects output dir: C:\SDCC-MM\MyApp\objs\
Finish
4 - Ignore script warnings
5 - Go to : Project -> Add files
Add your files: at least MyApp.c ( and maybe other *.c *.h files)
6 - Go to: Project -> Properties ->Settings tab:
Leave everything as is: (Title: MyApp and Platforms: All )
7 - And Project -> Properties ->Build targets tab:
Type: Native
Output Filename: C:\SDCC-MM\MyApp\MyApp.HEX
Uncheck both the auto generate prefix and extension
Check the build target files
Build options buttom:
Compiler settings : Check the flags you want
Searching directories: Compiler ->add : C:\SDCC ( this is my default SDCC dir)
Searching directories: Linker ->add : C:\SDCC
OK
8 - Build your App ( hopefully you have no sintax or other errors).
9 - Enjoy the sweet smell of your "MyApp.HEX" file.
Obs:
If you go to Project->Build options menu, You will find that you have the same dialog as described in 7) but empty. You may ignore it or enter the same settings you did before. But if you check a flag confliting with the previous ones, you have to search both dialogs.
You may ignore (I think) the main menu: Settings->Compiler and debugger -> Global compiler settings.
So in total, we have 3 dialogs to enter compiler settings. We can ignore by now the last two.
