hi everyone! i've just installed code::blocks on my ubuntu jaunty and have tweaked it to my liking. however, i haven't found the option to change the name of object file generated.
i'm a student and write mostly beginner level programs. i don't need the .o and executable files once my programs output the expected results. i want a way to change the name of the .o and executable files to a.o and a.out. For instance, when i compile palindrome.c, 2 files are generated-- palindrome.o and palindrome.out. is there a way so that the generated filenames are a.o and a.out. this way my home folder will not be cluttered with multiple .o and .out files.
i did try to change settings in Settings->Compiler and Debugger->Other settings->Advanced options...and changed the command to $compiler $options $includes -c $file from $compiler $options $includes -c $file -o $object but it doesn't seem to work.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
