So no merge? :/

[kisoft]

Svenstaro Sorry, I don't understand you. Whats mean "merge"? I have no time for support my project.

I'd find it easier if the Makefile plugin was included into the main project so that they are not separate anymore. This is called merging.

Will you maintain the code?

If not, without an maintainer with the time to work on the plug in I see no way for the Makefile plugin to be added to the Code::Blocks contrib.

I personnaly don't use this plugin even if I see its benefits in many situation.
I prefer a small exe with core functionalities and extra ones implemented in plugins to configure the IDE the way I like.

I'll look into maintaining it and get back to this thread when I have examined the situation. I'm working on a plugin (not for makefiles) of my own so it might actually be a help for me.

dje, the idea is to make this a plugin like any other which should not become an integral part of the main application. However, it should be included in the main distribution.

= core or contrib plugin

I've modified it, to make it generate the correct files

...patch?! ;-)

It is too specific and I don't maintain it any more

If someone fixes all the bugs, probable the contrib is good place for it.

Any Updates on this? Makefile generation is a big feature that i miss in code::blocks...

You can install plugin your self. Download binary and install it.
Any problems?

[meeba]

There is a problem. Due to recent updates from CB. The plug in, no longer works. You'll get a incompatible error.

There is also the standalone conversion tool cbp2mak:

It used to work for the cb project itself (unix & windows), maybe still does.

I am currently running Fedora 12 with SVN build of CodeBlock 10.05 and cbMakeFileGen_03.11.10. I ran into a couple of problems generating a Makefile for multiple build configurations.

Problem 1: @g++  -o bin/Debug/SomeProject $(Debug) was returning an error for g++ "no input files"
After looking at the source I found that line 358 in Makefile.cpp was using l_TargetName as a command argument instead of l_ObjsName.

Problem 2:  OBJS_RELEASE includes both Debug and Release objects.
Solved problem by adding m_Objs.clear(); on line 384 of Makefile.cpp see the attached source for changes. I renamed the Makefile.cpp to Makefile.txt in order to be able to attach it.

I no longer am having issues so I figured I would pass this on.
