I'm trying to write a
clang-format wrapper plugin and I can't find a way to build a plugin anyhow (win32 platform). All of the tutorials are outdated and none of them work (including
http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Compile_Code::Blocks_plugins_based_on_a_nightly). Can anyone post a quick step-by-step for plugin building? I'll extrapolate the rest from the existing plugins' sources.
Clang format is the superior code formatting tool for C/C++. I use it with Sublime Text 3 and it just kicks ass - it's way smarter and more capable than Astyle, with pretty much complete C++11 support. The inferface (a console utility with both file and stdin/out inputs and outputs; all options available via parameters) is absolutely perfect for writing it into a plugin.
I think many people would benefit from this (tbh, I'm doing this for my girlfriend, she's used to CB and doesn't wanna learn make + Sublime), so, PLEASE help me learn how to build a plugin.
