code::blocks & bmax

What are the chances of getting codeblocks to work with max? Has anyone else tried it?

I have attempted to trick it into compiling bmax files by using the .c extension and sticking bcc & fasm in the toolpaths.
That obviously did not work.

It would be great if this could be got working as its got a really comfortable ide & project manager.

I think it fails because it's actually trying to compile according to a Makefile. It would be great if Code::Blocks could be used. But I'm unsure if it's currently build to support non-c/c++ compilers.

Its a pity.
If my C++ skills were more adept i would attempt to make a blitz-hacky version of it from its source. The source is an endless maze so i wouldnt know where to start :(

I would start by improving your (mine as well) C++ skills and then buying "Cross-Platform GUI Programming with wxXwidgets" by Julian Smart and Kevin Hock (It's a good read).

Or we could just nag the code::blocks team to add support for BMax. :)

Lets do it!
