1.11.16 Settings for file extensions


In CodeBlocks, you can choose between several ways of treating file extensions. The settings dialogue can be opened via ’Settings’ /’Files extension handling’ . You can either use the applications assigned by Windows for each file extension (open it with the associated application), or change the setting for each extensions in such a way that either a user-defined program will start (launch an external program), or the file will be opened in the CodeBlocks editor (open it inside Code::Blocks editor).
Note:
If a user-defined program is assigned to a certain file extension, the setting ’Disable Code::Blocks while the external program is running’ should be deactivated because otherwise CodeBlocks will be closed whenever a file with this extension is opened.
