Hi all,

I'm trying to add compilation support for a SWIG interface file (generating a Lua wrapper); to do so I added the following line in Options(for the .i file)->Build:

--- Code: ---swig -c++ -lua $FILENAME
--- End code ---

However, it seems that the variables like $FILENAME don't get substituted, the build log just says

--- Quote ---swig -c++ -lua
--- End quote ---
(that call fails, of course).

I'm using the SVN rev 2218 on Windows XP; it looks like someone had a similiar problem a while back:
http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php?topic=1485.msg10583#msg10583.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Thanks,

Jabber

AFAIK, only variables in the form $(variable) or ${variable} are expanded.

Yep, tried that too, but both versions don't work neither.

Nope, they should be.

Where is that variable defined? If it is in the compiler's scope ( = global) then it does not work, that's a known bug.

Hi,

Under Options(for the file)->Build it says

--- Quote ---You can use the following variables:
--- End quote ---
and then a list of variables like $FILENAME and so on, so I didn't define that variable, but C::B should have ;)
