Title: Is it possible to get the profile/personality name?
Post by: AndyJ on December 15, 2023, 10:24:13 am

Is it possible to get the current profile/personality name as a variable so that I can use it in paths etc within a project?

Thanks in advance for any help with this

The list of avaliable built-in variables is here (https://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Variable_expansion). Looks like there are none related to personalities, but you can define your own variable in each personality.

I define the personality variable in a .cmd file and use it to start codeblocks.exe.
That makes it available to any process in the .cmd file.
