Creating your source file

You can begin coding your HelloWorld program. The file that you create will be saved in the project folder you just created Creating a Makefile project.

Files are edited in the source editor located to the right of the Projects view. The left margin of the editor, called the marker bar, displays icons for items such as bookmarks, breakpoints, and compiler errors and warnings.

For more information about:

• The editor area and marker bar, see Workbench User Guide > Reference > User interface information > Views and editors > Editor area
• The marker bar icons, see Workbench User Guide > Reference > User interface information > Icons and buttons > Editor area marker bar

To create a source file:

1. In the Project Explorer view, right-click the bitrevese project folder, and select New > Source File.

3. Click Finish.
4. Click File > Save.
