preprocessor defines and flags

[Rui Azevedo]

Is there any place, or planed to be any place for us to put defines other than the main file?

The idea is to customize included system code, i'm working on some arduino environment code that i would like to control by using defines.. and i'm sure there are much more reasons we need this.

due to the construction of IDE some environment includes are already done when the compiler reaches the user code, making the user lose the opportunity to customize the included code.

having a nice dialog to put some defines to be included in the main code before the libraries would work, and they could would work also for compiler flags.

This is not currently possible, but there has been some talk about
implementing something for this.
