Premake-CodeBlocks Module

"Premake" module that generates workspace and projects for Code::Blocks.
Based on source code from Premake4.

Features

• Support for C/C++ language projects

Usage (little reminder)

1. Put these files in a "Code::Blocks" subdirectory of Premake search paths.
   

2. Adapt your premake5.lua script, or better: create/adapt your premake-system.lua

require "codeblocks"

3. Generate Code::Blocks files

The module checks if configurations are compatible with Code::Blocks, but it slows down the process. It can be disabled with option --codeblocks-check=false

premake5 codeblocks
# Or
premake5 codeblocks --codeblocks=false

Note

If you are interested in a Code::Blocks plugin doing the reverse job, you may try Premake5 exporter.

Working on plugin

If your IDE understands EmmyLua annotations, you may take a look at lua-d-premake5.
