[rickg22]

Here's the official roadmap for CodeBlocks 1.0.

Oct 25, 2005: RC2 released

* Fix bugs that appeared in RC2. (SVN plugin, templates built with GCC...)
* Fix the linux cbp's

Release RC2-update-1?

* Try to use 16x16 buttons in wxSmith.
* Feature freeze - NO NEW FEATURES ADDED - AT ALL! Fix bugs only! (Yes, this goes also for plugins like SVN, wxSmith)
* Test extensively the Project templates
* test the linux cbp's
* Request users to build installation packages for Linux
* Build / cleanup manual in the wiki, handbook, etc.
* Create CHM help files
* Test extensively and compile on linux, windows, with unicode; with and without extra packages like SVN, etc.

Release RC3 VIP preview for developers

* Fix bugs that appeared in this
* Test extensively (yes, again) and compile on linux, windows, with unicode: with and without extra packages like SVN, etc.
* Only fix trivial (font should be 14,px not 16px) or showstopper bugs (i.e. crashes)

Release 1.0-RC3

* Only fix trivial or showstopper bugs

Release 1.0-Final preview for developers

* Only fix showstopper bugs if any.

Release 1.0-Final.

* Prepare website for massive bandwidth invasion (posting coral links, etc)
* Post to slashdot
* Celebrate!

Replace all dates with "ASAP".

Replace all dates with "ASAP".

That works, just be careful not to use "when we're ready." I think Cerulean Studios trademarked that one a couple years back.

Here's the official roadmap for CodeBlocks 1.0.

What is the status of running on OSX? Is it planned, anyone done it yet?

What is the status of running on OSX? Is it planned, anyone done it yet?

I don't know if it's planned, I for one will really like to see this port in a future.
The only problem is that there aren't people using OSX. So it's a matter of lack of Apples

BTW, I'm pretty sure that if someone donates a Mac to Yiannis it'll be supported in a few weeks

Let's see what happens with OS X running on x86. That could bring a few testers

So far, probably the only real problem of the port are the 3rd party libs used in C::B which aren't ported to Mac OS X yet.

What exactly is used in Code::Blocks that should prevent it from compiling on OS X?

What exactly is used in Code::Blocks that should prevent it from compiling on OS X?

The loading of the plugins need to be updated so that is supports the OS X naming convention for dynamic libraries.  I also think you have to pass different options to GCC on OS X in order to build dynamic libraries.  If anyone has the ogre source lieing around they can take a look.  It would also probably be best to build an Xcode 2 project file for OS X because you can be more sure of its existence than the proper autotools.
