There is no implemented option as far as I know but u can save ur c++ file with the extension '.cpp' and customize the compiling properties as described here:

scarphin: have you tried it? Your solution looks brutal.

mbruck: the project templates are simple squirrel scripts, you can modify them with right click -> edit script...

Well, no! ;) I haven't because of 2 reasons, 1st I have no experience in C++ and 2nd it is utopia to program the AVR's in C++ without the stdlib++ support (regarding AVRGCC) in my opinion. I proposed this solution because I am not sure if the 'avr-gcc' launches the C++ compiler for '.cpp' extension (as it launches the assembler for the '.S' extension) or if CodeBlocks launches the C++ compiler for '.cpp' extension.

It might be brutal but I guess it's guaranteed to work out. ;) I also would like to know if there is a better way apart from those or if the C++ compiler gets launched in any of the cases above.
