Project Options Dialog Box

You can set project options through the Project Options dialog box. To open the Project Options dialog box, choose Options Project Options in the Main Window.

The Project Options dialog box has these options and buttons:

Open the Most Recent Project at Startup Allows you to set whether the most recent project is automatically opened at startup. If you select No, Sun WorkShop will open without a project open (for more information about working without a project open, see Working With Projects).
Automatically Save and Close the Project When Exiting or When Opening Another Project Allows you to set whether the current project is automatically saved and closed when exiting Sun WorkShop and when opening another project. If you select No, you are prompted to save or discard Project changes when you open another Project or exit Sun WorkShop.
Automatically Save the Project Picklists When Exiting or When Opening Another Project Allows you to set whether to automatically save the picklist entries in all your menus (Build, Debug, Browse, and so on) at a time other than when the project is saved.
Set the Maximum Number of Picklist Entries Allows you to set the maximum number of most recently visited items for menu picklists. The number you choose is global and affects all menu picklists. The default maximum number is 20 menu picklist entries.
Restore Directory Settings When Changing Projects Allows you to set the directory settings for the tool available from the Sun WorkShop menus to those in the new Project. If you select Yes, Sun WorkShop uses the current project's working directory as the default directory for its tools. Otherwise, Sun WorkShop uses the directory from which it was started as the default directory for its tools.
