possible bug in compiler/linker options
spedgenius:
I have noticed an odd behavior in codeblocks. I am using v 10.05-1 from the Ubuntu repositories.
I have a configuration bash script that I use to supply -I and -L compiler and linker directives. I call this script in the "build options->compiler settings->other options" using the name of the bash file `wx-extras`. while I was writing the script, I had to make numerous changes. What I noticed was that whenever I made a change to the script that should change the resulting include directory, that change did not appear until I exited and restarted codeblocks. It is almost as if codeblock caches the expanded form of whatever is used in the settings. It took me a while to figure out what was going on. I am wondering if this is intentional behavior. It is rather annoying to have to restart the IDE every I make a change to a cofiguration script for my source code. Obviously, once I have the script working the way I want, It is a non issue. Although I occasionally run into the same issue when I have need to switch between versions of wxWidgets.

Hm, why do you need a script for wx widgets, they provide their own config script?
And yes, this caching is by design. I don't like it, too.
I think that it should be cleared if the project is cleaned, but I'm too lazy to track it down and fix it.
spedgenius:
it's actually for a group of my own custom widgets and add on classes for wxwidgets. I use it along side wx-config.
any thoughts on where to look for the code responsible for the cache? I might try to track it down if I have the time.
