[HELP] How to use $(codeblocks) in help system
shajunxing:
I used $(codeblocks) in the compiler settings and have successfully made all the compile system portablely. I found some useful Win32API help files from Delphi and copied to codeblocks folder. And configured the help using $(codeblocks) but it doesn't work. Is the reason that the help system doesn't support $(codeblocks)? And how can i use these help files portablely? Thanks. :P
Ceniza:
If you mean the help plugin, it only uses $(keyword), that will be replaced by the word under the cursor. If you add $(codeblocks) it will leave it just like that (same for any other word).
If what you got is a chm file, just add a new entry in the configuration dialog of the help plugin, point it to that file and that's all.
shajunxing:
Would you please add $(codeblocks) support to help plugins? :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ceniza:
Could you tell me what $(codeblocks) should return and why it is so important? :)
thomas:
It's one of the many builtin variables that the build system supports via MacrosManager (more specifically the one that points to the location of the currently running application image's executable).
Not sure why one would need that variable for anything else but an installer post-build step, though (that's what it was made for originally).
