Title: "New from templates" dialog shows no templates at all
Post by: dllmain on August 28, 2006, 12:13:29 am

All "folders" are empty - I cannot create any new project.
Does anybody know what I am doing wrong?

My revision is 2913, the nightly build of yesterday.
I am running Windows 2000 SP4.


Thanks in advance, Sebastian

File -> New -> Project. Doesn't work???  :shock:

EDIT:

Or are you talking about file-based templates (that maybe you made yourself)?

I have the same problem with build 2924 (Aug 30) on an XP Pro SP2 system, although it's working OK on Win2000. My home PC is XP Home SP2, but I don't have access to it right now to check. I restored the last nightly build I had downloaded (maybe a few days prior?) and had the same issue, so I put 2924 back.

When I try to create a new project, the dialog is empty for all categories. I'm not talking about user templates, but rather what's in C:\CodeBlocks\share\CodeBlocks\templates (on my system). All the files are there on disk, but they're not visible as templates in the dialog.

I've even looked through my default.conf, but didn't find anything there (didn't really expect to, since it's not a user-specific issue, AFAICT). Where is this config info kept?

Thanks.

I checked at home and it doesn't work there, either (XP Home). Weird.

Code::Blocks doesn't use the file-based templates anymore.

Well, whatever the cause, it has pretty much shut down any use of Code::Blocks for me until I find the fix. :(
