Creating Target Board Projects for S08/RS08

To create a new simulator project for an S08/RS08 derivative using the New Bareboard Project wizard:

1. Launch the Workbench.
   Note: For information about launching the Workbench, refer to the topic Launching Workbench.
2. Select File > New > Bareboard Project , from the IDE menu bar.

   The Create an MCU bareboard Project page of the New Bareboard Project wizard appears.

3. Specify a name for the new project. For example, enter the project name as Project_1.
   Note: If you do not want to use the default location, clear the Use default location checkbox. In the Location text box, enter the full path of the directory in which you want to create your project including the project name. Alternatively, click Browse and select the desired location from the Browse For Folder dialog box and click OK. Ensure that you append the path with the name of the project to create a new location for your project.

4. Click Next.

   The Devices page appears.

5. Expand the desired tree control and select the derivative or board you would like to use. For example, select S08 > HCS08A Family > MC9S08AC128 for an S08 derivative.
   Note: If you want create a library project, select Library from the Project Type / Output group. For this example keep the default setting to create an application project.

    Note: Some options may appear grey and are not accessible. The availability of the options depends on the derivative or board you selected.
13. Select the appropriate level of startup code, memory model, and floating point format.
14. Click Finish.

    The wizard creates a new simulator project for the HCS08 architecture according to your specifications. You can access the project from the CodeWarrior Projects view in the Workbench window.
