Hi! I have two projects in one Atmel Studio 6.1 solution which share some source files, but are compiled for different controller types. When one project is compiled, the resulting object files are unusable for the second project since the object files are stored at the same location for both projects. This could easily be solved by specifying different object file directories for the two projects. In Visual Studio (which Atmel Studio is based on), one can freely choose the output directory, but I couldn't find a similar option in Atmel Studio. Does anybody know how this can be done in Atmel Studio (either in the IDE or by some compiler options)? Thanks & kind regards, Markus
Oh, I faced this problem so often :) I would recommend you creating one directory, call it eg. "project". In this directory you create a subdirectory "universal" with files that are independent from the controller type. In that "universal" directory you have one entry file, for example "universal.c" which includes all necessary headers and files. Then, create a second subdirectory in the "project" directory, call it eg. "ATMega8". In this directory you create a project that uses the specific controller (in this case ATMega8). In the "main.c" you #include the "universal.c". For this, you have to add the directory path "..\..\universal" in the compiler settings. Like this, you can create multiple other subdirectories in the "project" folder for other controller types and you don't have to create redundand code. I hope I explained it understandable :)
