Command-line Compilation [message #480]

I would like to be able to setup a command-line build system for my project, so that I can build the whole project using a single command. That said, it appears that the packages in Ultimate++, such as CtrlLib, are compiled into object files, and not library files, and are also targeted to separate directories.

For example, C:\upp\out\CtrlLib\MINGW.Debug_full.Gui\CtrlLib.o

If I want to link with this object file, I need to add this path to the makefile. The same goes for all of the other package objects.

So, is there a way to set Ultimate++ to place all of the object files into a single target directory such as, C:\upp\out\objects ?

This way I can run a command-line build, linking in all of the objects I would need for whatever app I'm making.

Any comments on how everyone builds from the command-line using Ultimate++ libraries is appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

Don't know if it's what you want.

I think you could consider makeing makefile relative to "c:/upp/CtrlLib".

This is not quite possible - U++ allows the names of files to be the same in differnt packages, so output directories are needed to avoid name clashes of files.

The same goes for that "MINGW.Debug_full.Gui" - this is needed to avoid mixing object files for different set of build options.
