Understanding the control icons

The most frequently used control icons are the New, Build, and Debug icons.

Figure 1.21: The control icons

Let’s look closely at the functions of these icons:

The New icon: This icon allows us to create various files, including source code, header files, projects, libraries, and more. This function is also accessible via File | New.
The Build icon: Used for building projects. This functionality can also be accessed by right-clicking on a project and selecting Build Project.
The Debug icon: This launches a debug configuration to facilitate project debugging. This functionality is also available by right-clicking a project and selecting Debug Project.

These control icons provide quick access to essential functions, significantly enhancing productivity and streamlining the development process.
