The Project Directory lists the directory in which the saved
project file will be stored. This is also where the built source code
will be written. Use the Browse button to identify a
directory using a File Selection Dialog (which allows you to
also create directories if you wish). As you change the Project
Directory the Project Name, Program Name, and
Project File values will also change, unless you have already
changed these other fields separately to give them a different name.
When you save or build a project the directories will be silently
created as needed.
The Project Name is the name of your project. This will be
used as the title of the main application window you create (the
Gnome Application Window). The name can have spaces and other
characters. As you change the name of the project the Program
Name, and Project File fields also change to reflect your
project name (with spaces and other non-alphanumeric characters
converted to dashes).
The Program Name is the name by which the final executable
program will be known. This is used by Glade to name the output
executable file in the Makefile it generates. Once again, as you
change this field the following field (Project File)
automatically changes to be the same. The previous fields do not
change.
The Project File is then the file located in the
Project Directory in which the interface is saved. This file
has the extension .glade and is a gzip'ed XML document that
records all of the project information. See
Section 38.4.7 for details.
