Is Extra Preprocessor Definitions in Projucer the Great Override?

[aaronventure]

Does it override the modules as well? For example, if I set JUCE_ENABLE_AUDIO_GUARD=1 in the preprocessor definitions, does it override the setting in the juce_core module?

[Christoph Hart]

@aaronventure Yes.

@Christoph-Hart Can I override other stuff from the source, e.g. NUM_MAX_CHANNELS, NUM_POLYPHONIC_VOICES ?

I build HISE from CLI using a script, can I somehow pass these there so I don't have to edit it every time the jucer file gets updated?

I know I can do it for compiling a plugin, what about HISE itself?

#!/bin/bash
script_dir="$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")"
hise_source="$script_dir/../HISE Source"
projucer_path=$hise_source/tools/projucer/Projucer.app/Contents/MacOS/Projucer

# Build HISE
"$projucer_path" --resave "$hise_source"/projects/standalone/HISE\ Standalone.jucer
cd "$hise_source"/projects/standalone/Builds/MacOSX
xcodebuild -project "HISE Standalone.xcodeproj" -configuration Release -jobs 16 | xcpretty

@aaronventure

Fuck yeah I got it.

Goodbye, Projucer.

#!/bin/bash
script_dir="$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")"
hise_source="$script_dir/../HISE Source"
projucer_path="$hise_source/tools/projucer/Projucer.app/Contents/MacOS/Projucer"

# Define your preprocessor macros
PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS=(
  "JUCE_DISPLAY_SPLASH_SCREEN=0"
  "JUCE_ENABLE_AUDIO_GUARD=1"
  "JUCE_USE_BETTER_MACHINE_IDS=1"
)

# Join the preprocessor definitions with spaces
PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS_STRING=$(IFS=' '; echo "${PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS[*]}")

# Build HISE
"$projucer_path" --resave "$hise_source/projects/standalone/HISE Standalone.jucer"
cd "$hise_source/projects/standalone/Builds/MacOSX"
xcodebuild -project "HISE Standalone.xcodeproj" -configuration Release -jobs 16 GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS="$PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS_STRING" | xcpretty

EDIT:
I found this to not be so stable and HISE would sometimes act weird, so in the end I wrote a batch script that edited the default .jucer file to put the preprocessor definitions in the correct place in the xml.
