Re: create new type of project in codeblocks

[sihema]

hi.
i have codeblocks 8.0.5 in my ubuntu lts 10.04 .i'd like to reconfigure codeblocks in its file default.conf for a default configuration of the compiler and debugger settings.
so i'd like to create a template contains all the classes i need to my future projects with the convenient settings of libs,linker settings,directories of the compiler and debugger without reconfigure every new project.
i find that must set the file of default.conf of codeblocks but i don't know how.
so please if someone have a solution can help me i will be grateful.thank you in advance.

You can try cb_share_config and see if this fits your needs. It's provided with every nightly and the official installer.

Set up a basic working project and save it as user template with "File -> Save Project as template ...".

[sihema]

thank you jens ,but i didn't mean that ,i know how create a template but i'd like to create a new type of project which can appears in the list of the types of project when we would to create a new project .let me explain i  created an Ogre project then i like to let this project to be a template appears in the list of types of projects even we would to create a new project to choose it to begin with if we like to create another ogre project .

[sihema]

so i like to find it like that.i hope you undrestand me .
thanks.

so jens have you an idea please.

If you have saved your basic project as user template, you can go to "File -> New -> Project" (or click "New project" on the starthere-page).
On the left side chose "User templates" instead of "Projects", chose your template and follow the steps to create a new project from it.

[sihema]

yes jens i know that but my boss in work likes to find my template as an icone appears in the list of project when i click"create new project"  to choose the template then the window of "new from template " appears which i must find the icon of my template.
under /usr/share/codeblocks/template i add my template and also under  /usr/share/codeblocks/template/wizard  i don't know how i set the file wizard.script, i dont know what i'm doing  is right or not.
please if you have other way or idea or you know how modifying the file "wizard.scripts" help me and i will be grateful and happy. 

[sihema]

jens i don't know if you have another information to help me about.
and thank you for your responces.

Sihema, your boss seems to be asking for addition of  new project wizards to the Code::Blocks projects page and is not satisfied with having user templates.
That is possible, but would require much more work than providing user templates.

If he thinks that this is important enough for him, he will have to factor in some costs. These involve allocating you the time you need for studying how Code::Blocks implements projects and wizards and getting familiar with squirrel scripting and the Code::Blocks API to implement the additional project types.
Depending on the types of libraries that you want to use, the implementation can vary from trivial to very time consuming.

Just make sure your boss understands these costs. If he does, and really wants you to do this work, then start by looking how various other project wizards, like wxwidgets, Win32GUI, etc.. are implemented.

thank you codeur .that solved my problem.i just followed the other project how are implemented then i apply that to my own template and that worked fine .
thank you for all who participates by his responses.
