Title: Workspace and project usage
Post by: John_J on June 30, 2013, 07:15:09 pm

Hi All,

I'm new and am wondering about Workspace usage. I've just started working through a book on C and I wondering if I should have all the programs under one workspace or if I should have a workspace for each program. I was creating each program as a separate project identified by listing number in the book.

Thanks for your consideration,

John

It depends. Workspaces are intended for grouping related projects together.
Like if you have one application and several libraries, the app depends on.
Or several applications that are part of an application suite and share some code.

Book examples most of the times aren't related to each other, so you can skip creating workspaces or you can place them in one workspace.
Try it and see if it makes sense or not.

Thank you oBFusCATed.

Code::Blocks has a lot of options. I'll have to pour through the Help menu and posts here for usage.
