Settings->Global Variables: add 'my_output_dir' = somewhere

I could not get that to work.
1) In Settings->Global Variables, I added "object_dir" to Current Variable
2) then I added my folder name where my project is to "base"
3) then I set "obj" to "obj_windows" (I want the object files to go to .\obj_windows (where . is where my project is)
4) then closed and opened Project->Properties->Build targets->Objects output dir and added $(#object_dir)\Debug\
5) then re-built

But all of the objects went to ./obj/Debug

Are you sure that you've done it for the correct target?

Jenna:
Which version of C::B do you use ?

Set base to "obj_windows" and use $(#object_dir) for the Target. This will be relative to your project's root.

If you want to use the 'obj' part of the global, use $(#object_dir.obj)
