Build Options

In the Build node, you set options which influence code generation in ASCET.

Write Project Files on Build

Determines whether project files are written to the hard disk during code generation.

Keep Files in Code Generation Directory

Specifies whether the content of the code generation directory (Code Generation Path option) is to be retained or deleted when ASCET is closed.

Use Arithmetic Service

Activates/deactivates the use of arithmetic services for new projects.

Use first available Service set

Assigns the first set of arithmetic services in the file services.ini to new projects.

Configure Code Generation Messages

Opens the CodeGen Message Configuration window where you can configure code generation messages on a global level.

Activate External Code Storage

Specifies whether generated code is stored in the database (deactivated, default) or in encrypted files on disk (activated). See also External Code Storage and references therein.

Note

For workspaces, this option is always activated.

This option does not affect the code generation directory selected in Code Generation Path.

External Help URL

A path or URL for external help file(s) you want to connect to the code generation messages. See also Using External Help Files.

Warning threshold for power of two literals

If the project option Use power of 2 approximations of literals is active, the code generator generates a warning WIle18 if the relative error of the approximation is above the given threshold value.

Include User ID in generated files

If activated, the user ID is included in generated C, H, SCOOP-IX and A2L files. If the option is deactivated, the user ID is replaced by an empty string.

Further build options are compiled in subnodes:
