Hi,
this is my first post. The topic is inspired by what I'm doing now for the
company that recently hired me. They want to have all the automake and
kdevelop-files in a seperate directory. That's why I'm busy with adjusting
the app-templates (.kdevtemplate) with some new things :
- ProjectDir = KDev
This will put all automake/kdevelop stuff into a dir ./KDev relative to the
choosen projectdir (e.g. /home/kingkong/mycppproject/KDev) I made a new
appwizard (that exists next to the original) which show this path in it's
"final location".
- Added a new Type of action in .kdevtemplate's : "Link" (similar to
Install/Mkdir/...) .
This is needed because my company wanted the actual source files in the root
dir (/home/kingkong/mycppproject/) while having the necessary links to them
for automake/kdevelop (in /home/kingkong/mycppproject/KDev/src/).
Although both these things allready work, there is still some work to do
concerning the links/etc... in the "new class wizard" and most likely in
other places.
I want to check if what I describe here would be considered interesting for
other people. In that case I could commit (some of) my changes (and be less
different from future of kdevelop ;)).
If you're wondering why all this is so important for my company : They want to
have simple makefiles because they already have tools that check for complex
dependencies (in sub/subsub/subsubsub-projects) during the nightly builds.
To let kdevelop work easier with plain simple Makefiles is one of next jobs.
Greets,
