Suggestion for Code Blocks

[Decrius]

Hi there,

I have a suggestion and an error about CodeBlocks

1) It would be nice to have an option to close documents when you right-click the tab on the top of the document. I can only close a document in the Management part -> Projects -> Opened files, by right clicking. I've been using Dreamweaver (for website, from Macromedia/Adobe), and I'm pretty used to close documents, in the tabs on the top.

2) When I use UltimateZIP, to unzip files and double click on file that will be opened with Code::Blocks, it opens fine. But when the temporary file of the (for example) .h file is deleted (due to closing UltimateZIP), I get a message when I open CodeBlocks. When I click: No, close it. The file is closed, and the tab disappeared, but in the list on the left in Management -> Projects -> Opened files the files still exsists!!! I can't right-click on it to let it go, or anything. Its not a major error, but I thought to mention .

Not sure if this is the right place to post this topic...

What version did you use?

The first part works here for me. (revision 3424 on Linux)

The second part sound like a bug that was fixed long ago. At least I wrote some patches that fixed some issues like this one with the OpenFilesList. It probably fixed yours, too, if you use an old version.

Ow,

Might be, how can I update to a new version without having to reconfigure? Is there an auto-updater inside the program?

P.S.: version 1.0RC2

No there is no auto-update. You may want to try a nightly build.

nope, RC2 and the nightlies don't go hand in hand. See the sticky posts in the nightlies forum part. RC2 == CB + MinGW + GDB. You could keep the 2 latter ones or even reinstall them by hand. The wiki contains some articles on what you need to do (search eg for nightly cookbook in the wiki)

Is it very usefull to install the nightly builds? I mean what does it add to the IDE? (The fix of the so called 'bug', which I posted before, apparently, but I mean bigger things...)

Btw, and auto-updater might be an idea for the program  :idea:

Too many changes to list here! Tim S

For highlights see below list of planned features

The nightly builds basically contain the latest nightly 'snapshot' of where C::B stands. C::B has changed a lot since RC2, I really suggest you download them!
