treating *.scc files as source files
« on: July 14, 2006, 01:08:39 pm »
Hi
I have a question - or a feature request ;)
I want to treat *.scc files as source files - I have a project, where I have both *.cc and *.scc files. I can't change the extensions - all the files are in the repository, and other developers work on them. I would like to treat them (*.scc files, not the developers ;) ) as normal source files.  Is there any way to do this in the last version of Code::Blocks ?  If not - maybe it would be a nice feature to add to the IDE ;)
best regards

I think this may already be an option (if I understand what you are asking).

In the latest build:

go to Settings->Editor->Syntax highlighting and add *.scc,*.cc to the list of filemasks for C/C++ (*.cc is already there in mine)

In addition, you may need to click the properties for the files and check the boxes for "compile" and "link".

I think that will do the trick, although I haven't tested it (and I've only been using C::B for a few weeks).

Options for RC2 are similar, but I don't recall the exact names of the menus.

Okay, try this, then. (Assuming you are using gcc/mingw)

Project->Build Options->Compiler->Other Options:
-x "c++"

This specifies that the files are all CPP.

Now you will still need to check the properties on each *.scc file and check the boxes for linking and compiling.

If you are using a different compiler, check the docs to see if it will allow you to specify which language you are compiling with.

Hi
Compiler treats this files as c++ source (I have set it) but unfortunately the editor does not - I don't have syntax highlighthing.

Is there any possiblility that  you could switch to a nightly build.
It could solve all these problems.
