Hello, Why does uv3 not allow me to add the file "foo.h" to different targets? or maybe I am missing something? I am actually trying to add the same file twice to different targets. the fact that I get an error is highly annoying as I want to place common data of an application and bootloader in a share include file, and use the same project file but with different targets.
I don't understand why this does not work. I specify the target, double click on the right project folder (source, for example) to add the file, and I always get an error that the file is already a member of another group that belongs to the other target (the other instance is not built). frustrating...
No, you cannot add the same file more than once anywhere in one project.
But why do you want to do this?
In fact, I'm pretty sure that you cannot add a file to an individual Target:
There is only one list of files (and groups?) that applies to the whole project - ie, all Targets.
If a file is not applicable in a particular Target, you can't remove it from the Target - you can only mark it as 'Do Not Build' for that Target.
IMO, the whole uVision "Project Management" scheme is pretty weak...
:-(
I was afraid of this - but when I think of it, it makes sense given the behavior of the components dialog - selecting an alternative path does not change the contents of the file list!
