file list

[billaustralia]

I produce several dll and exe files which have some source files that are used in more than one.

Currently I do this by putting all the source files in one directory. This all works fine except for one thing.

I have been unable to extract the list of source files shown in the workspace window in one project into a text editor.

Any way of doing this? Or should I have a different set up?

A couple of things I can think of:

1. Do a Rebuild All and copy the list of files displayed in the Output pane.

2. Extract the list from the .DSP file for the project (may take some work with a text editor)

Let me also add that, if you put all shared files into one "virtual" workspace folder (e.g. under "Source files" group), they will appear in .dsp file as a contiguous group, enclosed in '# Begin Group "Shared files"' ... '# End Group'. In this way, you can copy & paste them easily from one worskpace to another using a text editor.

Too bad that VS's FileView does not support drag & drop operations between applications (i.e. Explorer or another instance of VS).

Bill,
About 70% of my Subs have multi-project usage. I find it convenient to place the common subs in a single folder, ".LibrarySubs", as you suggested.
But I created a LIB project and a .LIB file with all these subs. The file Library.LIB is added to most projects by adding it to the settings under Link, General, Object/Library modules: Library.LIB.
Also, the .LIB directory must be added to Tools, Options, Directories.
