Title: Update source file for a project automatically
Post by: aravind on May 29, 2013, 08:03:49 pm

Hi,

I have a project folder in which the list of source files changes with respect to my current git branch. I was wondering if there is any way (plugin or otherwise) to get Codeblocks to update it's list of source files automatically by scanning particular folders. This would really save a lot of time instead of having to manually add files to the project every time I switch branches. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Thee is an undocumented power-user feature called "globs" that might do what you want. To enable, you'll need to change the project file by yourself. I've unfortunately never used it, so I personally can't give you more instructions, but the user named "killerbot" surely can do.

Hopefully he'll reply to this thread...

Thanks a lot for the details. The "globs" feature works like a charm for what I want.
