Makefile Additions

Note:

Makefiles are now deprecated and will be removed in a later version of Mobile Designer. At this point, Mobile Designer will instead make use of the generated project file to build the mobile application (i.e. Xcode for iOS builds, VisualStudio for Windows Phone builds).

Use the Makefile Additions properties to link to third-party native-platform libraries and/or to include more complex native alterations to your applications.

Note:

Unless indicated otherwise, Mobile Designer duplicates your settings in the corresponding Visual Studio or Xcode project.

Specifies extra compiler flags or settings that you want Mobile Designer to include when compiling an application.

Note:

Mobile Designer does not include the flags and settings in the Visual Studio or Xcode project.

Platforms	All
Value	Flags and settings as required by the specified makefile for the target platform
Default	An empty String

Specifies #define statements that you want Mobile Designer to use when compiling an application.

Platforms	All
Value	A semicolon-separated list of #define statements
Default	An empty String

Identifies the name of an Ant path that includes a list of folders or files that you want Mobile Designer to reference for all C++ #include statements in a project.

Platforms	All
Value	Name of the Ant path
Default	An empty String

Identifies the name of an Ant path that includes a list of folders containing additional libraries used in a project.

Platforms	All
Value	Name of the Ant path
Default	null

Identifies libraries to add to the end of the referenced library list in the makefile. The libraries you specify with this property are placed after the default libraries that Mobile Designer automatically includes.

Platforms	All
Value	A semicolon-separated list of libraries Do not include file extensions or makefile-specific encoding. Mobile Designer will set the appropriate value for a platform. For example, if you set project.cpp.additional.libs.post to mylib1;mylib2, Mobile Designer might change the value to "-lmylib1 –lmylib2" on one platform, and "mylib1.lib mylib2.lib" on a different platform.
Default	An empty String

Identifies libraries to add to the beginning of the referenced library list in the makefile. The libraries you specify with this property are placed before the default libraries that Mobile Designer automatically includes.

Platforms	All
Value	A semicolon-separated list of libraries When specifying the libraries, do not include file extensions or makefile-specific encoding.Mobile Designer will set the appropriate value for a platform. For example, if you set project.cpp.additional.libs.pre to mylib1;mylib2, Mobile Designer might change the value to "-lmylib1 –lmylib2" on one platform, and "mylib1.lib mylib2.lib" on a different platform.
Default	An empty String

Specifies linker flags or settings that you want Mobile Designer to include when generating the final binary and linking the compiled code with the defined external C++ libraries.

Note:

Mobile Designer does not include the flags and settings that you specify in the Microsoft Visual Studio or Apple Xcode project.

Platforms	All
Value	Flags and settings as required by the specified makefile for the target platform
Default	An empty String

Specifies a stub makefile and/or project template to override those that Mobile Designer supplies.

Platforms	iOS
Value	Path to the copy of the stub makefile and/or project template you want to use
Default	An empty String
