switches for each of the current build target configurations.

To view your current compiler settings:

1. Select Project→ Open Project... to open the required project, for example

install_directory\examples\demo_ARM\dhrystone\dhrystone.prj

2. Select Project→ Project Properties... to display the Project Properties window.

3. Click on

*COMPILE=arm

in the left pane of the Project Properties window to see the

ARM C compiler (
