When you create a new SDK workspace, use the Hardware Specification File dialog box to specify the hardware specification file to use for creating software projects.

In an existing design, you can re-target the software projects in a workspace to build and run on a different hardware design. Select Hardware Design > Import Hardware Design to open the Hardware Specification File dialog box and specify the new hardware specification file.

The Hardware Specification File dialog box contains the following functions:
| Name | Function |
|---|---|
| Current Hardware Design | The current hardware specification file used. |
| Hardware Specification File | The new hardware specification file to use to re-target your projects. |
| Show Hardware Design Differences | Click this button to view the differences in the hardware designs. |
| Preview Software Changes | Expand this section to view the changes to the software projects. |
