SystemWorkbench for STM32 Automatic Project Importer - Files Associations (.project / .cproject) |
Purpose
SystemWorkbench can be used as default program for .project and .cproject files.
This allows to directly import projects into workspace either from native System Explorer by double-clicking on such files, or after a code generation performed by CubeMX.
If project already exists into the workspace then the project tree will be refreshed.
How it works
At startup, SystemWorkbench automatically installs files associations into the system if no other application has declared such associations.
When associations are defined to another application SystemWorkbench asks to override the configuration, by prompting the following dialog:
Note: this dialog may appear twice, to define association on .project, .cproject, or both.
Manual Setup
Files associations can be manually setup through a dedicated preference page:
Advanced
This feature supports multiple running instances of SystemWorkbench.
i.e. When several instances of the application are running -on different workspaces- the following dialog will be display. It allows to select one or many instances, or to launch a new one to select another workspace.
