Re: [Dev-C++] Re: Welcome to the "Dev-cpp-users" mailing list

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

There is a way of doing it. Create a Dev-C++ project and call it =
whatever, but not the name you actualy want it to be. Then add the =
source file or files you want to it, and save it all. Then you can exit =
Dev-C++ (or just close the project) and go to the project file and =
rename it to what you want, and restart dev-C++ and load in the renamed =
project. You may also want to go into project->options and change the =
project name there. It should all still work, and to be honest I can see =
no reason why it would prevent you from doing it this way in the first =
place. I can understand why some other files cannot have same names, but =
the project file isn't one.

Maybe in future version this restriction will be removed. (please?)

Jason.

  I always use names like Simple for the project then simple_file1.c  I =
found that works better :)

  not sure how to sort it so both can be the same name though.
