Pre / Post Build in Codeblocks 10.5
« on: June 11, 2010, 04:28:40 pm »
Why the Pre / Post builds are not disabled when using External Makefile??  May be It's wrong.. this must be disabled when using external Makefile. In codeblocks 8.02 this disabled... Why in codeblocks 10.5 is not disabled?

Most likely someone thought the exact opposite of the way you do.
If you put nothing in the steps, why would it matter if they are enabled or disabled?

Why should it be an error to enable pre and postbuild steps ?

If they are enabled you gain a lot flexibility, but lose nothing.
As Tim wrote, if the steps are empty nothing happens.

Pre and Post Build settings must be individual settings for external makefile and internal CodeBlocks settings. This is to let reality flexibility.
