Resolved Fixed:

• Made new SDL wizard cross-platform. Also changed sample bitmap
• Fixed wizards layout bug (would cut-off part of some controls on the right side)
• Include parsing of _svn directories

Regressions/Confirmed/Annoying/Common bugs:

• toolbar-images-not-changing-state (is a wx problem/Win XP problem)
• there are several issues with Code Completion (is being redesigned : work in progress)
• menu items with icon not correctly aligned (since wx263)

Windows ANSI build is here.

EDIT:

I uploaded to savefile it should work now.

Thanks for the ANSI build, this one did indeed download correctly (following on from my comment on the previous nightly) to my Win98se machine, and I have been able to correctly extract it.  What is very bizarre is I also caught the broken build you intially posted via googlepages and it actually also downloaded ok, I actually tried this twice to eliminate the possibility of a fluke.  I note that this file was a little smaller than the other builds if only by approx 0.2M, maybe there is a size threshold?  Anyway savefile seems to work ok.

There may be a threshold I dunno. As long as savefile works, and googlepages doesn't I guess I will use savefile (Until C::B hits 1.0 where ANSI support will be dropped althogether).....

I hope that if ANSI is dropped there will remain some means of using codeblocks in Win98!

Anyway I have noted a couple of issues with codeblocks using Win98...

If the Settings->Editor menu is selected, the program crashes identifing code completion as the failed module.  Disable this module then codeblocks crashes claiming keybinder is to blame.  Disable keybinder then it crashes blaming wxSmith; disable wxSmith then it crashes blaming astyle.  Disable astyle and the editor->settings dialog appears!  In each case the windows resource checker report less than 10% left although I have run these tests after getting the max resources free I could manage(approx 80%).

I have also noted similar behavior in starting codeblocks with the debugger plugin loaded.  With this plugin the codeblocks "starts" but does not display any windows after the splash screen.  Code blocks can be found in the task list and refuses any further attempt to start it saying it is already running.  When the task is killed in the task manager codeblocks does offer to save the window layout so it has not actually crashed, merely it is not displaying anything.  Again low resources is reported.

I have also seen this behavior in earlier nightly builds.  Also note that the dialog appears correctly when codeblocks is run on winXP.

That's the point: we 'll provide a stable good release for win98. But after that not anymore. You can't expect us to continue supporting an OS that even its creator has dropped support for it, do you?
