Project Properties

For DaVinci Adaptive projects, there are additional settings in the project properties of the project.

To open the project properties, use the context menu command Properties of your DaVinci Adaptive project in the DaVinci Project Explorer. The Properties dialog opens. You can then specify the following properties:

DaVinci Adaptive Project

Select DaVinci Adaptive in the left pane of the Properties dialog.

Project Settings

In the Project Settings area, activate the check box Lock Project Model to mark the entire project with all contained ARXML files as read-only. This option does not utilize the file system flags and thus only affects modifications done within DaVinci Developer Adaptive.

In case you are using Git for version control, you can create a .gitignore file for your DaVinci Adaptive project by activating the check box Create .gitignore. The created .gitignore file can then be edited using context menu command Edit .gitignore File of your DaVinci Adaptive project in the DaVinci Project Explorer.

Project Folders

In the Project Folders area, the paths of the DaVinci Adaptive-specific project folders are displayed. These folders are created automatically when activating the DaVinci Adaptive Support and they must be located on the root folder of the DaVinci Adaptive project (refer to section DaVinci Project Explorer).

To select a different folder, click the [Select...] button on the right of the respective project folder.

Note that the content of the currently used folders will not be moved to the new location. If this is required, use the Rename... command of the DaVinci Project Explorer instead.

Project Dependencies

A DaVinci Adaptive project may reference other DaVinci Adaptive projects. Such a reference is called a Project Dependency. As a consequence, the entire AUTOSAR model of the referenced project is available to the referencing project. This allows sharing AUTOSAR models across multiple projects.

The concept of Project Dependencies differs from the concept of the Project References in the Eclipse IDE. Please ensure that you always use the Project Dependencies to reference DaVinci Adaptive projects.

Select DaVinci Adaptive | Dependencies in the left pane of the Properties dialog.

In the Dependencies area, you have the following options:

• [Add Dependency]
  To add a project dependency, click the [Add Dependency] button. The Select Dependency Target dialog appears. Select the project(s) to be referenced and click [OK]. The project is now listed in the Dependencies area.
• [Remove Dependency]
  To delete the reference to a project, select the respective project in the Dependencies area and click the [Remove Dependency] button.
