Quick and Dirty way to compile CB using wxMSW without using PCH

[stahta01]

FYI:

This thread covers a quick and dirty method to compile Code::Blocks without using Pre-Compiled Headers.

1. Install sed from GnuWin32 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=23617&package_id=16429
2. Run sed-noPCH.bat
3. Compile CodeBlocks-noPCH.cbp
4. ContribPlugins-noPCH.workspace

Note: Steps 3 and 4 can be replaced with just compiling the project_name-noPCH.cbp you are testing.

sed-noPCH.bat updated 2007-06-12

This is an smaller version that only replaces the defines of CB_PRECOMP, WX_PRECOMP and USE_PCH with that of NOPCH.
And, changes envvars.cbp to use no_pch target for All.

Code

SET PATH=C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin

REM Change Virtual Target All to no_pch

Patch file for Code::Blocks core

from docs/tech/tn0019.txt

In no event should the Windows headers such as <windows.h> or <commctrl.h> be
included directly. So instead of #include <...> use "wx/msw/wrapwin.h" or
"wx/msw/wrapcctl.h".

I consider the above to mean any code using wxWidgets Libraries should also obey the above rule.
