Overview of the MEAD build process

MEAD instigates the build process once user data has been entered in the UI, as follows:

1. Creates a minimal Eikon application's source files and stores them in the relevant directories, see Development directory structure

2. Creates:

   A component description file bld.inf which lists all the projects in a component, and gives additional build instructions in group directory.

   .mmp project definition files, describing the project to be built, in the Gui and engine directories

3. Calls bldmake and abld in the group directory

4. Prompts the user to the location of the generated buildfiles, ready to be builtfor execution on the emulator or target device, see How to build a MEAD generated application
