Maybe PellesC ide needs File menu option to create New Workspace ?
File -> New -> Workspace
Exactly what it needs....
The problem is that workspaces are a side effect of creating projects, the ppw file is then stuffed into the folder with one of the project files.... But if you look at
this thread you will see that is not how we organize our work... We want to build projects inside a workspace.
Following your lead it would be something like this...
Workspace root = d:\Code
File -> New -> Workspace ...
Name: skyhook
ppw = d:\code\skyhook\skyhook.ppw
File -> New -> Project
Name : server
ppj = d:\code\skyhook\server\server.ppj
Location: d:\code\skyhook\server
Output: d:\code\skyhook\server\output
Result: d:\code\skyhook\
The reason I want the Result pointing at the workspace folder is that when I have multiple projects I can use that folder to get all the EXEs, DLLs etc all into one place for testing.
It has always been awkward to arrange this structure, but now, short of manually editing the ppj files, it's impossible. If I open one of my older projects with this structure, POIDE can edit, compile, build, even rebuild the workspace with no problems... it's that cursed wizard thats the problem.
Here's a couple of captures from one of my project "workspaces"... the first is the workspace itself, the second is the RMRemote folder within the workspace... the source, ppj fles, etc are all in the folders within the workspace, the runtimes are all in the workspace folder itself. As it should be.
