Selecting a processor as target processor

The first microcontroller added to the project is automatically selected as the target processor. It means that code will be generated for this microcontroller. When there are more than one processor in the project, the target processor can be changed by following these steps:

  1. Right-click the processor icon in the Components view to display a pop-up menu.
  2. Select Select processor as target and the required processor is selected.

This setting doesn't affect the setting of the target in the Targets tab in the CodeWarrior project panel. If user changes the target processor in the Processor Expert project panel and the processor doesn't match with the current CodeWarrior target settings, the Linker dialog is invoked during the code generation allowing the user to update the linker setup.
