Equates (Tools/Options)
The Equates tab of the Options dialog provides access to the Project's Equate definitions.
The IDE allows users to specify options that are commonly used in the IDE Options selection of the Tools Menu. These are the default values used by the IDE. Projects occasionally have a need to override the IDE options and there are also some options that are unique to each program. The Project Options dialog allows the developer to define the settings needed.
A project may contain multiple profiles. Each profile may be customized for a particular purpose. For instance, a project may have a Debug and a Release profile. The Debug program could contain some specialized setting that would aid in the development of the program. Once the project has been fully developed and is ready for distribution, it could be compiled with the Release profile settings. When multiple profiles are defined, a combobox to the right of the toolbar allows quick selection between profiles.
