Hi everyone. I'm just now starting to try and teach myself about C++ for fun in my spare time so I bought the sixth edition of "C++ For Dummies." It came with a disc to install that set up Code::Blocks "Special Build for 'C++ for Dummies.'" I was just curious if anybody knew what is so "special" about the Code::Blocks that I have now. I hope this is the right place to ask this and I didn't find anything about it when I searched so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I suggest stating by posting the version number from the about box.

Special is the version which is not an official (public) release, but an interims-release, specifically done for this book and the compiler bundled in addition.

In particular, a compiler version which was in alpha stage at that time (at the request of the book author). Which means, if something comes out that eats your cat, we dun' know nothin' about it. :)
