I guess this goes along with the other request to have
custom makefiles, but it would be nice if their was
also a project import for make files.
Lets say you have a project previously using a
makefile, you want to use an IDE and bring it into
Dev-C++. Now you could just have Dev-C++ use the make
file as-is and depending on compiler variations it
might actually work... but I was thinking of looking
through the makefile for sources to add to the project
list and looking for EXE vs DLL vs LIB type projects,
thus importing in the files and type of project and
still utilizing the existing project management.
however, in some makefiles this might require a
workspace with multiple projects. As a make file might
generate one static library, one DLL, and half a dozen
EXE demo's. So Dev-C++ would probably have to
integrate multiple projects per workspace first to do
this properly.
Thanks for a wonderful IDE!
