Project setup#

You don't need to set up the project further. When you’ve created or opened a project, the QNX Platform is available.

Troubleshooting#

If you notice one of the below issues in the Build Settings window, then the QNX DSP Environment isn't set up correctly:

• Unable to find QNX_TARGET in Environment.
• The build environment does not fit the selected QNX Version.
• The build environment does not contain the selected QNX Architecture.

Before starting the Editor, always check that you have the QNX DSP Environment set up properly for the Editor to pick it up.
