Project Settings - Compile Options

Overview

Compile options

Compiler Version

Fix Version

Here you can define which compiler version should be used when the project gets compiled, for example by one of the built commands or during download. For this purpose, choose the definitive version (Fix version).

NOTE: Consult the Programming Guide specific to your controller for intormation on whether the data type LREAL will be treated as 64-bit type or converted to REAL.

Settings

Allow unicode characters for identifiers

By default, this option is deactivated because the use of unicode characters in identifier names is not matching the IEC standard. However, it can be needed, for example, for Asian languages.

Replace constants

By default, this option is activated. In online mode, the constants are indicated by a icon preceding the value in the declaration or watch view. In this case, constant values cannot be modified. If the option is deactivated, the constant can be accessed.

NOTE: When designing an interface library, activate the Replace constants option to help avoid an online change.

Enable logging in breakpoints

By default, this option is deactivated. For breakpoints which are defined as execution points, you can define a message text in the dialog box Breakpoint Properties. This text is displayed in the device Log view when the program stops at the breakpoint.

Compiler Warnings

Maximum number of warnings

Define here the maximum number of compiler warnings that should be listed in the Messages view. Refer to the selection in category Compiler Warnings.
