Porting from the e² studio to CS+

Migrating between Integrated Development Environments

• Existing Project to New CS+ Project

• Existing Source Files to New CS+ Project

Projects that have been created using the e² studio can be ported to the CS+ environment in either of the following two ways.

• Convert an existing project to create a new project with CS+
• Create a new project in CS+ and register existing source files

CC-RL and CC-RX projects created in the e² studio can be converted into CS+ projects by using the export function of the e² studio to output them as Renesas common project files (*.rcpc).

Procedures (Go to Step 3 if the *.rcpc file has been generated in the project folder.)

1. Select a project in the e² studio, right-click to produce the pop-up menu, and select [Export…].

2. Select [Renesas Common Project File] as the destination for export and output the project file.

3. Specify the exported project file (*.rcpc) from the project that is to be converted for CS+. Select [Open Existing e² studio/CubeSuite/High-performance Embedded Workshop/PM+ Project] in the startup screen of CS+.

Image

4. Select “Project File for e² studio (*.rcpc)".

5. Select a project that is to be converted in the [Project Convert Settings] dialog box of CS+. Then, specify [Microcontroller], [Kind of project], [Project name], and [Place] that are used in the converted project. After that, Converting the project starts once you click on [OK].

1. Click on [Create New Project] in the startup screen of CS+.

2. In the [Create Project] dialog box of CS+, select the type of microcontroller in [Microcontroller] and the particular device in [Using microcontroller], labeled (1) and (2) at right, set a name for the project in [Project name] and the place where it is to be stored in [Place], both labeled (3), and then click on the [Create] button.

• For example, select [RH850] and [RH850/E1L] for [Microcontroller] and [Using microcontroller], respectively.

4. Add the existing source files to the file branch of the [Project Tree]. New files can also be added.

• You can also add files by dragging and dropping on the file category in the project tree.
