Choose menu "Modules" / "Manage plugins". Press "Install new" and select cbMakefileGen.cbplugin file.
After install you can see menu: "Project" / "Form Makefile".

My plugin is a simple makefile generator only ;)
A generated makefile is base for edit. You can rename this file and edit it if you want.

Sorry, I have no Visual Studio 8 for test this error. Check makefile for errors.

You don't need it. You should just make sure the output directory exists. Thus within a Makefile preample (or similar) create the target directroy recursively and you are done.

I understand this feature. No problems with implementation. (for ex. I can see to C::B method for a directory creation).

I think when linker error no depended from directory creation.

Loaden can look linker parameters for generated makefile and C::B full command line.
Or, for example, show here full command line for linker from C::B.

Good luck!

Hello,

I am new in Code::Blocks and I am trying to find a makefile generator from codeblocks. Thats how I stumbled this discussion.

I followed the instructions above but for me the plugin does not install  :(

Has anybody managed to make this work on:

Ubuntu 8.10
Code::Blocks 8.2 (from ubuntu synapric package manger or aptitude: codeblocks 8.02-0ubuntu2)

Thanks in advance  :)

I can not try use my plugin on C::B v8.02. I being used this plugin on Night build C::B (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,20.0.html (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,20.0.html)). You will can download and install Night build version of C::B. And you can download cbMakefileGen plugin and install it (url see below). Sorry for my english.
Good luck!
