The Options tab lets you specify several attributes for the project you're building:
Figure 1. Specifying build options on the Options tab.
- General options
- By default, some project properties (e.g. active targets) are local — they're stored in the .metadata folder in your own workspace. If you want other developers to share all of your project's properties, then set the Share all project properties option. The IDE then stores the properties in a .cproject file, which you can save in your version control system so that others may share the project file.
- Build Options
- If you want to profile your application and take full advantage of the QNX
Application Profiler, then select from the following:
- Build for Profiling (Call Count Instrumentation) to provide per line statistical coverage (see Sampling and Call Count instrumentation profiling).
- Build for Profiling (Function Instrumentation) to provide you with precise function run time information for a project. (see Function Instrumentation profiling).
- Build with Code Coverage to use the Code Coverage tool to provides an overview to measure how much code a particular process executed during a test or benchmark (see Using Code Coverage).
