i dont know much about make files, but i have a good experience with command line interfaces.


oh i got to "This is a custom Makefile" option, tip,  somewhere in the forum search, but im not sure what else you have to do.

Makefiles are generated from codeblocks cbp (or workspace? i'm not sure) files.

But it's not possible to dothe opposite, you'd have to analyse the makefile and make your own workspace.

What you CAN do, is add the files you need to edit to your project / workspace, and select "use custom makefile" to compile using your project using the existing makefile.
