Is including such a dialogue worth the time coding it? What if it needs to be recoded in the future, how many combined minutes would that occupy if you also count in all the other features of CodeBlocks? ???
So my question is; is it worth the time to code this thing to save time for the user, or is this to be considered more like a fun project disregarding what can be saved?

Is developping software ever worth the time ?
Almost everything we do with software is either totally useless or can also be done without computers.

Such a cool answer, it made my day. My pondering just went away completely... :D
ouch:
Well since no one had any problems with it I went ahead and submitted it as a patch here: http://developer.berlios.de/patch/index.php?func=detailpatch&patch_id=3529&group_id=5358

This is fine for what it is, but if anything it's indicative of the larger problem that (IMHO) the project properties/build options/set program arguments dialogs are a total clusterf##k. I have spent a lot of frustrating hours in those dialogs messing around with settings trying to get different projects to compile and run. I would really like to see all of those features consolidated in one place, ideally using editor windows in tabs (a la the editor window) rather than dialogs so that we can have settings for more than one project open at once. I think Code::Block build system is terrific, but the GUI just sucks.

I've started work on this feature, but I've higher priority issues to tackle before I'm back at it.
ouch:
I was wondering why this never got added, then I remembered that the code::blocks berlios project died right around that time so my submitted patch no longer exists.
Was there an actual reason this was never added or should I re-submit it through sourceforge?
