Migrating between Integrated Development Environments

Overview

Porting from PM+ to the e² studio

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

Process Convert an Existing Project Create a New Project
Source file registration Automatic Manual
Option setting (Partially) automatic Manual
Source file folder location Automatic No care needs to be taken regarding the file registration location.
Conflict between source files and automatically generated files Files should be modified after a project is created. Care should be taken regarding conflict at manual file registration.

Convert an Existing Project to Create a New Project With CS+, and Then Convert the Project to a New e² studio Project

Direct conversion of projects for PM+ into projects for the e² studio is not possible.

Use the function for converting projects for use with CS+ to convert the project into a CS+ project for the given microcontroller, and then importing project it to the e² studio.

Projects for H8, M16C, and M32C, convert CS+ project to e² studio
