How to globally set the "custom variables" in the cbp files under a workspace
« on: February 04, 2025, 03:26:23 am »
Hi, when I try to build the whole C::B workspace against the "debug version of the wxWidgets", I need to change the "custom variable" named "WX_SUFFIX" from "u" to "ud".

This is simple if I only need to change this value in a single "cbp" file, but if I want to change them in all the cbps under the workspace, how to do that? I don't want to open the build option dialog for each cbp files.

Thanks.

Have a look at https://github.com/gerard-durand/codeblocks_gd_cbps as an example of how to do it for Windows only. This may save you some time.

It seems to me that using the 'Plugin->Project options manipulator' extension should solve your workspace problem.

Hi, @LETARTARE thanks. This is my first time to use this project options manipulator plugin, this plugin works. I can change all the "u" to "ud" for the "WX_SUFFIX" custom variable, great!

@Wkerry thanks, I see the gd's cbp file is a unified version for all windows versions and wx versions, this is also a great work! Why not put them to our SVN code base? Any devs opinion?  :)

IMHO, now wxWidgets 3.3 is near we can try gd_on's files, keeping current 3.0 (Linux only), 3.1 and 3.2 projects (just in case).

OK, I agree.

I found that the project manipulate plugin does not work well.
Here is my setting, see the attachment image.

And the result is:

Also, it is prompted that I need to save all the project files, so I press YES button.

But I see that the WX_SUFFIX value are still "u".

 :(

EDIT

If I check on the "replace only search pattern", the issue still exists.

OK, I finally found the solution by debugging the source code of this plugin.

I have to do like below (see attachment)

The text control pointed by blue arrow could be empty.

The right red arrow points to the new value of the custom var, and the left red arrow points to the var name.

@Wkerry thanks, I see the gd's cbp file is a unified version for all windows versions and wx versions, this is also a great work! Why not put them to our SVN code base? Any devs opinion?  :)

GD's repo started a long time ago and there was a post in 2024. It makes life allot easier as you have indicated. See https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/1332/ for an old patch that seems to have not been looked at.

That's great, thanks for the info, I think the devs should take some time to add his patch to the svn repo.
