Default Plugin Doesnt Compile
« on: August 05, 2007, 12:39:04 am »
Hi, i've been using code blocks for about a year now. I have it set up to use the mcc18 compiler for microchip and it works great with that. I want to get started developing plugins but i've been trying to get it to work now for a couple hours and I am gettin go were. I have the wxwidgets 2.8 compiled and i have the cb and wx global variables set. I also have minGW installed. After I go through the wizard and get the plugin template I try to compile and at first i get 'codeblocks' library can't be found so i go to build options and remove it from linker list then i try to compile again and i get this
Code
.objs\HelloWorld.o:: In function `ZN10HelloWorldC2Ev':C:/Documents and Settings/User/Desktop/HelloWorld/HelloWorld.cpp:14: undefined reference to `cbToolPlugin::cbToolPlugin()'

i get 'codeblocks' library can't be found so i go to build options and remove it from linker list
Why on earth would you do that? Since you're developing a plugin for Code::Blocks, it stands to reason that you'd need to link with a Code::Blocks library.

You need to download the C::B sources and compile them, then set your #cb global variable to the "src" directory in the C::B sources.

Hi bear24rw,

please try to use mingw 3.4.5 to build codeblocks from sources, so this could solve your problem. Please rebuilt the system and delete first the precompiled header (*.gch)

Do you know where i can find 3.4.5?

nvm found g++ 3.4.5 let me try to compile with it

I followed
http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Compiling_wxWidgets_2.6.2_to_develop_Code::Blocks_%28MSW%29
But with wxwidgets 2.8.x if that helps

To understand you problem properly: Are you able to build Codeblocks from sources now? Do you get the errors while compiling you own plugin?

You need to either use the plugin with your own just-compiled C::B, or upgrade the C::B that you're trying to use it with.

So the plugin isnt backwards compatible?

There are to location for codeblocks plugins. One location is the install directory share\CodeBlocks\plugins and the other in your (user) application data appdata\codeblocks\share\codeblocks\plugins.

If you install the plugin via the menu Manage Plugins, it will be save in the appdata path. So if you have two different versions in the install dir and the app data dir this will cause problems.

So try to delete the old plugin. If this will not fix the problem check the file  manifest.xml and modify the line that it looks like that.

Code
<SdkVersion major="1" minor="11"  release="11" />
   

PS: This problem will also appear if you try to use the cb nightly and building your own plugin. Just built cb from sources and link your plugin against the required libs.

It's not that you're asking the plugin to be backward-compatible; it's that you're asking an older version of Code::Blocks (your nightly build, or whatever you've actually been running) to be "forward-compatible" with a plugin built for a newer version of Code::Blocks (the version you compiled from sources).
