Introduction to <strong>Visual</strong> <strong>Components</strong> 2.3<br />

The VC.INI file contains information about the panel projects which exist in this Automation Studio project<br />

(CP360). Parameters connecting the panel object to the hardware are entered in this file and updated when the<br />

project is opened.<br />

This example uses an object with the name 'vis' (panel object name). There is also a subdirectory with the same<br />

name for this project.<br />

All files required by the panel editor for managing the project are found in the 'VIS' subdirectory.<br />

Files ending with '.BR' are project files which have already been compiled.<br />

Files ending with '.BRC' are checksum files for the .BR modules.<br />

The TFont1x1.BMP file is a font file in bitmap format.<br />

The VIS.PWC file is the actual project file containing all the information for the editor.<br />

Additional information for the editor is contained in the VIS.PWL file.<br />

Backup Copy:<br />

A copy of the project module is made after every successful compilation. The project module has the ending<br />

'.PWC'. The backup copy has the ending '.BAK'. In case a project crashes or can no longer be opened, try to<br />

replace the project file with the backup copy.<br />

Other bitmaps, text, and binary files can be included depending on the project and target hardware. In general,<br />

all project files are contained in this directory and subdirectories.<br />

Warning:<br />

Please do not change, delete, or move any files or directories from the AS project. This can cause the project to<br />

crash!<br />
