Attachments: Library inclusion in CodeBlocks

Description crazybyte 2009-06-22 21:16:28 UTC 
This feature is available in CodeBlocks IDE. Go to Project Properties --> Libraries tab. The tab contains two lists
among other settable options. The right side list contains all the available libraries that are detected by CodeBlocks
using the pkg-config database (basically it lists the contents of the directories where pkg-config files are located in
the files system). The left side list contains the libraries already included or if the project is new then the list is
empty. CodeBlocks allows the user to inclusion or the removal of the detected libraries from project, by clicking on a
button. If a library is included the output of pkg-config of the library metadata file is used by CodeBlocks to set the
header inclusion paths and library inclusion paths for the compiler and linker. It would be very useful to have such a
feature in the Project Properties --> C/C++ Compiler and Linker tabs somewhere beside the Additional Options field.

Comment 2 Vladimir Voskresensky 2009-06-22 21:31:58 UTC 
thank you for the ENH. 
Should be easy to do (because internally we have support for pkg-config), may be community wants to help?
