Development Assistant for C differentiates between two types of configuration:
- The configuration of parameters which have a direct influence on the project, file lists, the configuration of external tools, Debuggers, Version Control Systems, User Defined Actions, and the like. This configuration is saved in Project Files with the *.DCP extension.
- The visual configuration of colors, scaling, and the like is saved in files with the *.INI extension.
When creating a new project with Project / New Project or by means of the New / Development Assistant for C Project shortcut menu, DAC copies the contents of the default Project File DAC.DCP file into the new Project File. Default Project File file is located in the same directory as the DAC.EXE file. Therefore, all that needs to be common for all the projects you are working on should be defined in the DAC.DCP file. As the direct configuration and editing of this file has not been provided for in the current version, the best way is to create a project, configure it, and then copy its Project File in place of the DAC.DCP project file.
The visual configuration is not copied when a new project is created; the one saved in the DAC.INI file is still used. This file is located where the DAC.EXE file is located. Each change to the visual configuration is saved in this file, so that if you want to have individual adjustments on the level of the project or of developers, you must create an ANYNAME.INI visual configuration file in the directory where the ANYNAME.DCP project file is located. This file can be created empty or by copying the DAC.INI file.
