Description rawlink 2001-02-09 17:30:19 UTC
A common(or not so common :-) ) extension for c++ files is 'cxx'.  It would be
nice for that to be added to extension types.  The best fix would be under the
"Tools->Options->Object Types->C/C++ loader" properties to have the ability to
set extensions recognized for C, C++, and header files.

For the ".cxx" extension, no problem I will add it.
For the customizable extensions - I think about it (and I am working on it),
but it will take some time.

I added "cxx" extension to the "cpplite_makefile" branch and created new
build.

Target milestone -> 3.3

So, I created C/C++ Options, and they open the possibility to add custom
extension to the list for each of DataObject. (OK, they do much more, but there
is no doc explaining it and it is probably not much clear for the first look).
For changing extensions, you can go to the:
Tools/Options/C/C++ Options/${wanted_file_type}/Extension recognizer/
And there are two arrays of string:
masterExt (Master extensions) - usually editable file
slavesExt (Slaves extensions) - usually file compiled from one above generated
