Setting Source File location

Hi Yall,
I've been working up a sweat on this C++ 5.02 IDE. Getting a lot figured
out. BUT,
I wish to store my source files in a seperate directory from the compiler
BIN files.
Actions taken: I set Option->Project->Directories = C:\BC5\MySource
Every time I bring it up cold, it wants to store a new .CPP file in
C:\BC5\BIN
If I force it through the directory tree to C:\BC5\MySource then it will be
ok until
I re-start the ide.
How do I get BCW to store my files in C:\BC5\MySource ?
Thx
Stan DeGroff

Hi Stan,

Delete the source files from the project window and then reinsert them.
That
should do it as long as you've done the...
Actions taken: I set Option->Project->Directories = C:\BC5\MySource... for
all 3 boxes (source,intermed,final).

Re:Setting Source File location

Another thing to keep in mind is when you create a new project be sure to
add the path you want to use in the Project Path and Name field. By default
BC5 places the c:\bc5\bin\proj0000.ide in that field. So in your case you
would change that to c:\bc5\mysource\proj0000.ide

Re:Setting Source File location

I can recomend that you use JideTool, that allows project reconstruction
(it's well spelled) among others cool
things:
