Build Your First Application
Change Project Settings
In this book, we'll be creating applications that take advantage of Newton 2.0 OS-specific features. In order to do so, we must specify to NTK that our project is 2.0-specific. From the Project menu, open the Project Settings dialog. Set the Platform popup to "Newton 2.0" (see FIGURE 2.20).
Note:
Changing platform files is time-consuming; it could take as long as a minute from when you click OK until NTK is done switching platforms.
At this point, you would normally use the Output Settings and Package settings panels to set the application name, application symbol, and package name (see "Creating Unique Application Symbols and Names" on page 419). However, Demo NTK doesn't allow editing these fields.
