Could use a way to set basic compile options (build, target) in Lazarus similar to Delphi (panel "Projects"). I mean something similar to:
I haven't used Delphi for a while.
Is it so that Delphi's "Target Platform" is not part of the "Build Configuration" but other options are?
Lazarus project options have :
- Target OS
- Target CPU family
- Target processor
Remember, FPC / Lazarus is a fully cross-platform system unlike Delphi. Which target options would you put in the project manager?
This could be implemented as an IDE plugin package. It would inject stuff to the project manager window. If the current plugin API is not enough, it can be extended. Patches are welcome.
Currently you can create 2 build modes for the targets and switch between them using a toolbutton with a nice dropdown list in the IDE Coolbar. It does not become much easier.
