Separate compile flags for c and c++?
« on: May 24, 2008, 05:19:52 pm »
Is it possible to specify separate compile flags for c and c++?  It doesn't look like it.  If not, this would be a nice feature.  Is there a place to post feature requests? 

I would also like to have a bit more control over the actual link command used.  I had to edit the cbp file by hand to jiggle the lib order and lib directory order to get the link to work for a large application.  This is really a problem with gcc that I have to do this at all, but it would be nice if C::B provided finer grain control over the link step.

This is an excellent tool!  I just started using it on Ubuntu yesterday and I have ported my VS projects over without much problems.  Thank you!

You could define different build targets, including in each one the files you desire to build, with their own flags and options, and then you could also create a virtual target including all those previously defined targets, if you want to compile all the files in your project. (see the way used in the C::B source-code project itself for instance).

BerliOS is the used place.
