Compile and Run individual files ?

I have a question: Can CodeLite compile and run individual files (just Open them) which don't need to be in a project or workspace ?
Thank you very much!

You can define a tool for such task using the 'external tools' plugins
from the menu: Plugins -> External Tools -> Configure tools
create new tool
Name: compile single file
Tool path: g++
Arguments: $(CurrentFileFullPath) -o myexe -g
and check the options: Capture output process
This tool will simply compile the active file using the pattern g++ '$(CurrentFileFullPath) -o myexe -g'
You can define a shortcut for this tool using the 'settings -> keyboard shortcuts' and search for the external_tool_N entry
You can also simply run it from the toolbar or from the plugins menu

Thanks for responding
But I think all the files will have the same name "myexe", aren't they?
Beside, if I just open 1 file by CodeLite and run it by that tool, I always have the msg
Code: Select all
g++: $(CurrentFileFullPath): No such file or directory
g++: no input files
Program exited with return code: 1
