Subdirectories and Built Files

CA Gen automatically creates subdirectories for the built code. These subdirectories are subordinate to the directory created to hold the model. For installed source code, CA Gen creates a subdirectory named C.

The file extensions and contents of files that are built permanently (P) for assembly or temporarily (T) as artifacts for both character-based (block mode) applications and GUI (including GUI stand-alone and GUI client applications) are as follows:
