Automating GNUStep from Notepad++
I use GNUStep to compile Objective-C on Windows 7 using GCC 开发者_如何学JAVAand MinGW. I'd like to be able to automate the "make" instruction (with make files) from Notepad++ and have any complier errors reported to Notepad++s console window.
Edit: What I am trying to do is script GNUStep/Bash to login to the right directory, build the directory, then exit. Currently I have to type in the following:
sh -login -i
$ cd d:\directory
$ make
Does anyone have any experience with this?

The npp-plugins gives you most of what you are looking for. Install the plugin and:
- Press F6 to open the NppExec Execute window
- Type 'make' (you may also want to cd to the proper directory first) and click OK
- Output from make is shown in the notepad++ console
Another cool feature is that it will save the command if you restart notepad++, so you only need to type 'make' a single time.
You may need to make some tweaks to only show compiler errors, however.
I have done it, with considerable help from my friends.
Create a Bash script called 'nppmake'. I saved it in c:\GNUStep. The file should contain the following:
#! /bin/bash
cd $1 make
Create a DOS batch file called 'nppmake.bat', which again I saved in c:\GNUStep. This file contains the following:
sh --login -i C:\GNUstep\nppmake %1
In N++, go to 'Plugins > NppExec > Execute' and type in the following:
C:\GNUstep\nppmake.bat $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)
Hit 'Save' and call the script 'make'.
- In 'Plugins > NppExec > Advanced Options...', create a menu item, which I called 'Build' and associate it to the script called 'make' (I'm a Visual Studio developer, so 'build' feels more natural to me). Make sure 'Place to the Macros submenu' is checked.
- You may need to restart N++ at this point, but then all that is left to do is add the keyboard shortcut. Go to 'Settings > Shortcut Mapper > Plugin Commands' and find 'Build'. I assigned 'Ctrl-Shift-B', is it is the same as VS.
You're done. Now open up a file in a Objective-C project, that has a GNUmakefile, and hit 'Ctrl-Shift-B'. The NppExec window reports any errors, or hopefully a successful build!
Just a small correction to kim3er's answer.
cd $1 make
should be
cd $1
make
