Review Summary and Create Project
Review the summary page to verify your selections and then clickFinish.
The following settings in the IAR project are imported into the resulting MPLAB X IDE project:

  • Project files
  • Include directories
  • Defined symbols (called "Preprocessor macros" in the MPLAB X IDE project)

You must configure all other compiler settings manually. Consult the "MPLAB XC8 C Compiler User’s Guide for AVR MCU" or "MPLAB XC32 C/C++ Compiler User's Guide for PIC32C/SAM MCUs" for more information. See theMPLAB XC compiler webpage for documentation
