Close SynthEdit.īack in Code::Block you can now start modifying the module to make it your own. This is because so far you have only duplicated the existing Gain module. If you start SynthEdit now you should get confirmation of your new module via a ' Module found twice!' message. Note Windows 32-bit uses ' Program Files' not ' Program Files (x86)'. Menu ' Project/Build options/pre-post build steps' Add the following.Ĭmd /c copy "$(PROJECT_DIR)$(TARGET_OUTPUT_FILE)" "C:\Program Files\Common Files\SynthEdit\modules"Ĭhoose the menu ' Build/Rebuild', check that the log window shows ' 1 file(s) copied.' else check the above command. This SEM needs to go in your SynthEdit modules folder. If you browse to 'C:\SynthEditSDK\MyGain\bin\Debug' you should see your fresh new SEM! With luck, the build log windows should show your files being compiled with '0 errors'. Click 'OK' to close Project Build Options. Change Output filename extension to ' bin\Debug\m'.Ĭlick Build Target ' Release' and repeat the previous 2 steps to change the filename. Open Project Properties (Menu Project/Properties/Build Targets) - Untick ' Auto generate filename extension'. Menu Project/Build Options/Linker Settings/Other Linker Options Tell CodeBlocks to link the C++ libraries statically (include everything needed with the SEM module).

WINVER=0x0603 - Enables support for Windows 8.1 (and later) _UNICODE - support for non-western characters, e.g. SE_TARGET_SEM - This tells the SynthEdit SDK that we are building a standalone module, On the same dialog click the root object (MyGain here), add #define On the same dialog, click "Release" at left, add define " NDEBUG" (without the quotes). Add #define ' _DEBUG' (without the quotes). Menu Project/Build Options/Compiler Settings/#defines - Select 'Debug' target top left. Menu Project/Build Options/Search directories - To the "Compiler" tab "Add" C:\SynthEditSDK\se_sdk3 Let CodeBlocks know where to find the SDK files: Scroll down and select by ticking also: "Static Linking " and "Targetx86_64 (64bit) " Menu Project/Build Options/Compiler Settings - Tick "Have g++ follow the C++ 17 ISO C++ language standard. You can double-click any to open them.īefore we can compile our module for the first time there are a few settings to fix. You should now see the files in the left-hand pane. From the 'C:\SynthEditSDK\MyGain' folder add 'Gain.h', 'Gain.cpp', 'Gain.rc', 'Gain.xml', and 'resource.h'.

Now add your custom module files, this is the code specific to your module. In the dialog box 'Select the targets this file should belong to', both boxes should be ticked, choose 'OK'. Menu 'Project/Add files', from the 'C:\SynthEditSDK\se_sdk3' folder add 'mp_sdk_common.h', 'mp_sdk_common.cpp', 'mp_sdk_audio.h', 'mp_sdk_audio.cpp'. Expand the folders and use right-click 'Remove from Project' to remove 'main.h' and 'main.cpp'.įirst add the SDK files (these are common to any SEM modules).
These are defaults created by the wizard. On the next page type the module name 'MyGain', folder 'C:\SynthEditSDK'. We are going to create a new module project from scratch.Ĭhoose 'Create a new project' (this starts a wizard), choose 'Projects' - 'Dynamic Link Library'. This Development Environment is an easy compiler front-end.
Select the Gain folder, right-click Copy, then Paste to make a copy. These modules are a good starting point for making your own. "C:\My Modules\"īrowse to C:\SynthEditSDK (or wherever you installed the SynthEdit SDK), This folder contains the code for many of SynthEdit's modules plus the SDK itself (in se_sdk3). Note: This compiler does not support spaces in folder names.

ĭownload the SynthEdit Software Development Kit (SDK)and extract it.
#Setting up codeblocks compiler install
Setting up the Development Environmentĭownload and install the Development Environment from the binary installer for Windows which includes the GCC Compiler, e.g. Making your own SynthEdit module with the free Code::Blocks environment. SynthEdit can automatically create projects for Visual Studio for you via the 'make code skeleton' menu, which is less work. Update: Microsoft Visual Studio is now free.
