Project Property

The VSBridge Properties menu supports customization of project builds. You can create a build on one remote machine and implement the debug­ging on another machine. You can also use the Properties options to config­ure an additional configuration for a remote target, for example, active debug. In addition you can create different build types with many instances of each build, for example, create one type of build for Unix and another for Linux.

The Properties page is divided into the following tabs:

  • General
  • Application
  • Build
  • Debugging
