Title: Feature Request
Post by: jfpjr on July 30, 2014, 01:30:25 am

Would it be possible to add an option to prefix the object file name with the project name and underscore.
Ex file1 in the project project1 to be named project1_file1.o. I currently have converted the current option for extended object file names but would like to see it done correctly.

Thank you

What does this mean?

BTW: You can specify different obj dirs for different projects, so collisions in the files is prevented.

I have used the checkbox for extended object names and hacked the code to prefix the file names. I don't know enough about changing the xrc files etc to make all the changes required to add an new checkbox or whatever.

The reason for the request is that I am importing a large lib project and am trying to match how it was originally built.

Thank you.

You can:
1) use targets and give every target a separate obj output folder by project->properties->buidl targets->Objects output dir

or  (not a recommended way)
2) change the compiler command line: Settings->Compiler->Other Settings->Advanced options->yes->
