Hi all,
I am setting up a development environment for a cross-platform project and currently, I am in the process of choosing an IDE. I set my eyes on CodeBlocks because I plan on using wxWidgets. Since the last release is so old, I decided to build from source.
However, I have errors (whether 10.05 or the 2011-02-20 nightly) building the trunk version I grabbed yesterday using the SVN plugin of my Eclipse instance. I also downloaded the source to wxWidgets versions 2.8.11 and 2.9.1. And thanks to @xaviou at wxdev.fr, I also grabbed boost off sourceforge. My system is a Vista SP1 with MingW and MSYS (current versions) both installed around 24 hours back yesterday. As shown below, the gcc version is 4.5.2
In Code::Blocks, I did set the base of global variables wx (to 2.8.11), wx29 and boost to the appropriate top-level folders. I chose "core app and plugins" as build target and clicked the build button. The build fails like this:
Compiling: sdk\uservarmanager.cpp
Compiling: sdk\virtualbuildtargetsdlg.cpp
Compiling: sdk\workspaceloader.cpp
Compiling: sdk\xtra_res.cpp
Linking dynamic library: devel\codeblocks.dll

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Process terminated with status 1 (3 minutes, 33 seconds)
2 errors, 0 warnings
Basically, I am interested in some insight and directions, as I've followed the instructions in the BUILD text file that's in the source tree as well as the instructions in the "how to use a nightly build" and yet I'm getting that error.
Thanks.
