Move IAR project to another computer + files to save in version control

I have tested this process and Renesas tech's are reviewing the process.

I know many people will want to do this so I have documented the process.

My setup:

• Using IAR embedded workbench for Synergy plus SSC for configuration
• SSP 1.2.0
• My project folder is the same for IAR workspace and project files - i.e. configuration.xml and the .eww and .ewp in same project folder
• If you use different folders simply select the files listed below from your folders

To move to another computer:

• Set up project folder same as original machine (path to this folder is not critical)
• Copy .eww, .ewp IAR workspace and project folders to the new project folder
• Copy configuration.xml and R7FSxxxxxx.pinconfig files to the new project folder (xxxx = rest of your synergy part number)
• Create a folder "src" under the project folder
• Copy all .c and .h files from src folder on original machine to src folder on new machine machine
• Do not copy any other files to the new machine
• Make sure your SSP license file is somewhere on the new machine
• If you have not installed IAR EWSYN, SSC and SSP on the new machine do so now.  "Getting started with IAR workbench" app note from the IAR folder in the gallery describes the installation process
• Open IAR EWSYN.  Do "file/open/workspace" and select the .ewp file you copied
• All the .c and .h source files should show up on the project tree
• Click the Synergy icon to open the configurator (SSC)
• If asked, point to the SSP installation folder and point to the license file (only needed if a window pops up and asks for this info)
• The configurator should open and all of the settings should agree with the original project (threads, pins, clocks, etc.)
• Click "Generate Project Content" --- this will generate all the Synergy generated files needed for the project
• Go back to IAR and you should see the Synergy generated folders and files
• Build the project and it should compile exactly as the original computer
• DONE !!!

Files to included in version control:

• In the project folder:
  • .eww and .ewp files
  • configuration.xml
  • R7FSxxxx.pinconfig where xxxx is the rest of your part number
• In the project src folder:
  • All .c files
  • All .h files

Hope this helps.  Let me know if there are problems and I will edit the post.
