To create a precompiled header you can do this:
1. Create a new file with the suffix .pch e.g. MyPrecompiledHeader.pch
2. Add your #includes and other necessary stuff into the precompiled header
e.g. in MyPrecompiledHeader.pch:
#include <PalmOS.h>
3. Add the precompiled header target name and location using the pragma
precompile_target:
#include <PalmOS.h>
#pragma precompile_target "Output/PalmOS.mch"
4. Add the precompiled header file (.pch) to your project. It will always be
the first file built and will output the .mch file into the specified
location. Your project will then use the specified .mch file to build the
PRC. In the above example, assuming that you specified PalmOS.mch in your
prefix file field, the compiler first precompiles the .pch file to get
PalmOS.mch and then uses it in the building of the PRC.
Hope this helps.
