Title: windres options
Post by: perosoft on February 23, 2011, 06:46:28 am

hi,

new to codeblocks,
how can i send options to windres ?
 i'm building different targets with the same rc file, and need to send defines to windres.
i have searched in forum but seems to be no answer on that problem.

thanks !

Go into the compiler settings on the last page, look for "advanced" settings. There you can fine-tune every option passed to windres.

What exact options do you need? For #defines you simply use the define - tab from the compiler options.

windres missing -D

from windres manual:
-D target
--define sym[=val]
Specify a -D option to pass to the preprocessor when reading an rc file.

for example when I define DEBUG in compiler options I get
windres.exe -i D:\home\marek\WORKSP~1\CODEBL~1\WX7F47~1\resource.rc -J rc -o obj\Debug\resource.res -O coff -ID:\codeblocks\wxWidgets-2.8.12\include -ID:\codeblocks\wxWidgets-2.8.12\lib\gcc_dll\mswud

so missing -DDEBUG
