Creating a project

1. Options, Project
	Output Directories: Intermediate and Final should be empty

2. File, New, Project
	- Project Path and Name: c:\temp\add1test.ide
- Target type: Application
	- Platform: Win32
 	- Target Model: Console
	- Static
	- Advanced button: only .cpp (.rc and .def must not be checked)


Separate Compilation - creating a new Project of several C++ files

3. Double click on add1test.cpp and type the following code

// uses the function add1
// defined in a separate file
#include <iostream>
#include "add1.h"
int main() {
   // get the number
   cout << "Enter a number: ";
   int n;
   cin >> n;
   // find the number plus 1
   int newn = add1(n);
   // print out the number plus 1
   cout << newn << endl;
}


4. Right click on the target (.exe) node to add a dependent 
node called add1.cpp

#include "add1.h"
// adds 1,
// returns added value
int add1(int n) {
   return (n + 1);
}


5. The .h header file does not have to be listed as a dependent 
node in the project window (only source files get listed there), 
but it does have to be in the same directory as the target.

// adds one
int add1(int);
