Title: Workspace variables
Post by: fubo on October 20, 2010, 07:22:22 pm

Hi,
I would want to define some variables at workspace level that can be used at project level for example for name building. For example, I would want a project to be renamed depending on the workspace in which it is included. I tried variables sets, but they are defined at configuration level and not selectable at workspace level but at project level.

Could someone help me?

Regards.

I am working with the idea that Code::Blocks does NOT do what you want.
You might have some replies saying it works somehow to do what you want; but, I have no idea how to do what you wanted to do(Unless Global Variables solves the problem).

You did try Global Variables, right?

If so, then you need to patch the code to do what you want.

See Wiki on How to Compile Code::Blocks from source

I know, I saw there is no way to do that... :(

BTW is there a reference for XML codes available for .workspace and .cbp files?
