I think that's what you want.

I think the thing dushara posted is what i were looking 4, but it doesn't work (it says it isn't defined...)...
This variable_expansion is just a list of predefines, but i need the directory of the currently loaded project when invoking the plugin...

This works for me...

Code

void my_plugin::OnProjectOpen( CodeBlocksEvent& event )
{
    cbProject* prj = event.GetProject();

    if(!prj)
    {
        return;
    }

    const wxString& prj_file = prj->GetFilename();

    ...
}

Don't forget to register the event handler...

Code

void my_plugin::OnAttach()
{
    Manager::Get()->RegisterEventSink(cbEVT_PROJECT_OPEN, new cbEventFunctor<my_plugin, CodeBlocksEvent>(this, &my_plugin::OnProjectOpen));
}
