Build and Executing an Application

To build and execute your application:

1.      Select Build or Rebuild All from the Build menu. Note that the Build Log in the Log Window tracks the compiling process and indicates when it finishes. Once the Build finishes, an executable (. EXE file) is created. If the compiler find compiler errors or warnings, they are displayed in the Build Log window as shown here. You can click on the link to see the code that caused the error. The following images of the build log showing successful build followed by a log showing build with 2 compiler errors:


2.      Select Execute! from the Build menu to build (if sources were updated) and create executable (.EXE file). If the process is successful and no errors were detected , ATEasy will run the executables you just created. Alternately, you can use Windows Explorer to run the EXE file as in other Windows applications. Your application will now run outside the ATEasy IDE without a debugger.
