[Bug]: [Macro Expansion] Support both curly brackets and parentheses for C++ project macros.

Codelite v.18.2.0
Windows 11

Version

Operating system

Windows 11

Steps to reproduce

Relevant log output

[eranif]

Have you tried using it with parentheses ?

$(ProjectName) - this one should work.

[biciolea]

Yes, it works with round brackets. Wasn't the correct syntax with curly braces?

[eranif]

The correct syntax is the parentheses, however, we should support both. If you click at the Help button at the Settings dialog, it will present you with a list of macros that can be used, with an option to copy it - so you won't need to remember which version to use.

Lets keep this issue open, I will update the title.
