Importing an existing XPS application project


The Import Application wizard that existed in the 10.1 release of SDK, which automatically imported XPS software projects into the SDK workspace, is no longer available in SDK. You should manually import the XPS projects into SDK workspace.

To import an existing XPS software application into your workspace:

  1. Create a new Empty Application managed make project by following the steps mentioned in Creating a C or C++ project.
  2. Import the source files into the workspace by following the steps mentioned in Importing resources from the file system.
  3. If the XPS project uses a linker script, specify this linker script in the linker options as described in Adding the linker script manually.
  4. If you have changed the Debug and Optimization flags of the project, follow the steps mentioned in Specifying debug and optimization compiler flags.
  5. If you have added any custom libraries and library paths, follow the steps mentioned in Adding libraries and library paths.
  6. If you have specified custom compiler and linker flags, follow the steps mentioned in Specifying the compiler options and Specifying the linker options.
