Would it be an good idea to prefix headers with cb?

If the Code::Blocks team thinks it is a good idea, I will work on the patches to make it happen.

Example

Code

#include <cb/sdk.h>

Patch to replace $(#cb)\include with $(#CB.include)

Applied in SVN. Thanks.

Would it be an good idea to prefix headers with cb?

I don't think it's a good idea. Cause we have parts (e.g. wxscinitilla) that are not C::B but still belong to the SDK. So the drawback is that we would have to separate SDK headers which (I'm afraid) is not what we want.
Other than that: I could imagine using #include "sdk.h" for C::B (SDK) parts and #include <wx/wx.h> for other stuff... That's how I do it in my personal projects... but this might have drawbacks, too.
