Where do IDE Options save? |

IDE Options allow changing things like tab position (and whether a tab is a tab or a space).
Where do these get saved? Some else opened a project and noticed the tab spacing did not match. If this is not part of the project, is there another file we could check in to version control so everyone opening the project sees the same tab settings?

It is in the .ccspjt file.
Did he open the project, or just the source file?. If he opens the source
file it could be using his own local project file. |

Thanks -- I'll look in to that. I opened a few projects and checked that screen and saw what I expected, so it could be that. _________________ Allen C. Huffman, Sub-Etha Software (est. 1990) http://www.subethasoftware.com

Some of those might be local to your account at:
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\PICC\pcw.ini
In particular the whether tabs are used and what size |

If you think about it, this explains a lot of the oddities that sometimes seem
to happen with the project configuration.
The INI file will be related to the application itself (so the IDE), not the
'project'. It will contain things that are changed for the whole IDE.
Then the CCSPJT file contains the settings for the actual project.
The two being separate, explains why sometimes some settings seem to
remain, and others get lost.
So if you change the menu layout in the sidebar, or at the top of the screen,
I'd expect this to be in the INI. However things like whether the compile
generates a symbolic listing or not would be in the project.
I suspect CCS may have the 'boundary' blurred a little, so some things
changed as part of the project are actually stored in the INI. Result the
problem being found here... |
