Referenced Projects -vs- Referenced RTSC Configuration

CCS4.1.13.0038, DSP/BIOS 6

I want to use the same RTSC Configuration in two different CCS Projects. 

I thought the way to do this was to create one project with a new RTSC Configuration Project which also automatically creates a referernce to the new RTSC Configuration Project.    Then create another project and check "Reference an existing RTSC Configuration project" on the "Referenced RTSC Configuration" page then select the previous Configuration Project. 

But then I ran across FAQ-080729-5 which reccomends creating a separate Configuration-only Project, then referenceing that project in the Additional Project Settings page.  I tried to find documentation on exactly what "inter-project depoenicies" really means but all I got was "Creating a New Project".

Now I am -really- confused.  Which is it?  Or does it matter?  What is "inter-project depoenicies"?

    They are both similar in that it will build the referenced/dependant project first before building the current one.  The one difference is that you can also specify the build configuration of the project with the project dependencies while the a project reference will simply use whatever configuration that is currently active for that project.

    if I am referencing an existing RTSC Configuration project, then the build for that project will use the settings for the application project? 

    if I am referencing an Additional Project, then the build for that project uses only the settings specified for the Addition Project?

    the 'build configuration" is ALL of the properties for a project? or just the C/C++ Build?
