How to use Macro Settings in Project options

[vdudov]

Macro Settings dialog allows to specify an external "Macro File".
What's the format of "Macro File"?
Does it affect Indexer?

Should just be legal CPP code. Yes, it only affects the indexer, doesn't impact the build.

Correct me if i am wrong external "Macro File" means the "varient file from Selected SDK".

Carbide already preprocesses the variant file from the SDK. Look at the Macros tab under the Carbide Build Configurations and you will see content preprocessed from the variant hrh file (variant hrh file is defined under \epco32\tools\variant\variant.cfg). Other content is there such as include paths and MACRO statements too.

You can use the Macros Settings to explicitly include other include files that may not get picked up by the indexer.
