I recently came across the Code::Blocks IDE and think it is a great tool. I've been trying to build FFMPEG using the tool, but I am not having any success. The process involves running a bash configure script and then a custom makefile.
I created a new empty project and I believe I have all the files imported, at least all the default .c and .h files. I could not figure out how to run the configure script from within the IDE, so I ran it using MSYS with bash support. I then proceeded to modify the Code::Blocks Project Settings to use the custom makefile and I set the build target as Windows.
Under the rest of the tabs, I didn't change anything as I assumed the configure script and the makefile would take care of these settings. Under the project's build options, I enabled only 3 Compile Flag options (-W, -Wfatal-errors, and -s) for the Release build. Under the "Make" commands tab, I changed the Build project/target to: make and the Clean project/target to: make clean.
Before I get too deep with the compilation, I try to do a clean. At this point the IDE returns the following message: "Execution of 'make clean' in 'C:\Projects\ffmpeg' failed. Nothing to be done." There are files to clean and if I run make clean from the MSYS command prompt, it will perform the clean operation.
I'm not a big Unix programmer, I specialize on the windows platform. Any help is greatly appreciated...
