Summary

0014285: Codeblocks generator needs to be more friendly towards project file.

Description

The CMake Codeblocks generator is a great tool but it appears to assume ownership of the generated project file.

It is common for Codeblocks plugins (e.g. Doxyblocks and wxSmith) to insert content into the project file. This information needs to be preserved when e.g. CMake-gui regenerates the cache.

At present it appears that the project file is completely rewritten when CMake-gui performs a cache regenerate operation.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create e.g. a Codeblocks - MinGW Makefiles project with CMake-gui
2. Open the project in Codeblocks and add some content with wxSmith plugin
3. If you wish, build the project
4. Close the Project
5. Regenerate the CMake cache with CMake-gui
6. Open the project in Codeblocks and notice that wxSmith added resources are no longer present in the project tree

Additional Information

I am using CMake-2.8.11.2 under Windows with Codeblocks-12.11
Although I specified Codeblocks - MinGW Makefiles I suspect it might affect other Codeblocks generator features
I have reverted to using the MinGW Makefiles generator to ensure that my Codeblocks project file customisations are kept
