Project Paths in the Project Window of MPLAB® X IDE
All project related paths may be accessed in the Project Properties window. To open the Project Properties window:
Set the Output Path
This feature from MPLAB® 8 is not currently supported. MPLAB X IDE has a fixed directory structure within your project directory. Output files are always sent to one of two locations depending on whether you built for debug or built for release. Adding an option for custom output directories is on the list for possible future enhancements.
Production Builds
Production builds always store the hex file in the following subdirectory of your project:
../MyProjectName/dist/default/production/MyProjectName.production.hex
Debug Builds
Debug builds always store the hex file in the following subdirectory of your project:
../MyProjectName/dist/default/debug/MyProjectName.debug.hex
In the above paths, MyProjectName is the name of your project and default is the name of the project configuration.
Set The Intermediates Path
