Title: Adding to a project a file not belonging to any target
Post by: earlgrey on September 04, 2014, 08:45:10 pm

Hello 2 all,

Just one remark :

It is currently impossible to add a file to a project without affecting it to at least one build target ( a fleeting dialog shows and disappears, and file is not added ).
However this can be achieved further in the file's properties, or in the build target's properties.

And the problem is?

I would like to be able to add a file ( lets say a bash script ) to a C/C++ project without affecting it to any target, directly from the "add files to project..." dialog.

Just a question of comfort.

This is just a suggestion.

In fact it would be nice to be able to create projects without any target at all, just for organizing accessory files with the virtual folders.

The easiest solution/workaround for this is to have (dummy-)target that will never be compiled.
