Common Project properties for many console applications
« on: May 25, 2016, 07:22:40 pm »
I have many (hundreds) of console applications (examples of using Boost).

I've got a few working, adding search path to Boost headers and to prebuilt Boost libraries, but I can see it will get tedious for very many of them, most using the same settings..

Can anyone suggest how best to avoid this tediumperhaps  by providing a workspace propeties files, perhaps similar to VS .props files that one can place above a solution?  Thanks

Paul

Some options:
1. file -> save project as template
2. modify some current wizard script to add all the options you need
3. write a script that add settings to the current project
4. use the project option manipulator plugin (check the plugin menu)
