Question

I'm using Kdevelop to create C++ projects. Now I need to create a C project. In 3.xx versions, I had the option to create C projects, but now I'm using Kdevelop 4.2 and I only can see C++ project templates( QT / NOGui ).

How should I configure Kdevelop for C projects?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Have you checked the "show all project templates" while you were in the New Project dialog box? See this question as reference (look at the screenshot): kdevelop 4.0 : No project Templates

OTHER TIPS

i know this is an old post but just in case .. here is a quick answer - requires a little thinking but not difficult.

  1. (optional) install kapptemplate - this will put even more templates here:

    /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdevappwizard/

  2. first step is just to provide more defaults - these will show up in kdevelop or you can run kdevappwizard alone. this is what will be in the directory:

    ├── kdevappwizard.rc
├── template_previews
│   ├── akonadi-resources.png
│   ├── akonadi-serializer.png
│   ├── default-kdevelop.png
│   ├── default.png
    ...
└── templates
    ├── akonadiresource.tar.bz2
    ├── akonadiserializer.tar.bz2
    ├── cmake_plaincpp.tar.bz2
    ├── cmake_qt4core_qtest.tar.bz2
    ...
    └── simple_phpapp.tar.bz2

  3. copy a couple of the simple ones, say simple_phpapp.tar.bz2 and cmake_plaincpp.tar.bz2 into a sandbox dir and unpack them.

  4. then, check out what is there and use the files and the naming scheme of the files as a model - adjust to suit your needs and
  5. pack up in similar fashion,

  6. place in same directory as above or in ~/.kde/apps/kdevappwizard/..etc. - et voila!

    Note: the preview image is optional - you can skip it.`

    eh - i know, thats kinda vague but if you can program in C you can probably handle it :)

To use them just copy the archives to /usr/share/apps/kdevappwizard/templates/
