sadly c::b has no good error logging...
you can start gdb from the command line
I suppose your mingw installation is in your path, then you can simply run
path/to/cb/gdb.exe codeblocks.exe
and if you get some segfault you can get a backtrace with
but i think it won't contain many information, because c::b binaries arn't compiled with -g option...
greetings
The codeblocks.rpt file is nowhere to be found in either appdata, temp or installation folders.
I tried running it with gdb as suggested however gdb said:
(no debugging symbols found)
When the same crash occured nothing happened in gdb. I can't help but roll my eyes at the irony of not being able to debug my ide.
BlueHazzard - that is very very cool, thanks. Here is the output of my crash:
