Title: add all wxs files to cbp?
Post by: ollydbg on June 19, 2013, 06:00:52 am

Hi, see the image shot below, I see only three wxs files in the folder: Others->wxSmith. But we do have a lot of wxs files for the Codeblocks.cbp, what is the good place(folder shown in the project manager) to put those files? Do they need to separated by build targets?

Yes, separate them by build target.

I believe in the beginning wxSmith simply did not add the resource file to the project. It is added in a "hidden" way as an extension node in the project file. The 3 files are either added manually or meanwhile wxSmith adds them to the project as a resource file, too once you create the resource (I am not sure about this).

However - be care fuel here, as these resource files are not meant to be edited by hand, it might be better not to have them as resource files in the project at all, actually...

This is not a big problem, because if you double click on one of them it will open in the wxsmith's editor, not the text editor (by default).
