Title: Windows 7 -- 64 Bit ?
Post by: pjm21b on March 31, 2011, 11:12:21 pm

Is there a Windows 7 -- 64 Bit version for 10.5 Code::Blocks, and if so how do I get it ?
Thank you

wxWidgets 2.8.x under windows does not support 64 bit.
wxWidgets 2.9.x under windows does support 64 bit; but, Code::Blocks still has 64 bit compile issues and crashes on shutdown with wxWidgets 2.9.x when 32 bit build is used.

Edit: When wxWidgets 3.0 is released is likely when Code::Blocks will start to switch over to wxWidgets higher than 2.8.
Note: wxWidgets 2.9.x is an development build not recommend for production use.

Edit: Another stopper is MinGW GCC does not officially support 64 bit builds. This is only a minor stopper since TDM MinGW-like GCC does support 64 bit builds under windows.

Settings >> Compiler and Debugger >> Toochain Executable >> auto-detect

with the right path, it works )

Why did you post on this topic; a post unrelated to the topic!
I just realized you are NOT understanding that Code::Blocks is NOT a compiler.
The OP was asking if there was a 64bit version of Code::Blocks; not, if the was a 64 bit version of an compiler that works on Windows 7.

Edit: For all the Computer newbies Win 32 bit software works on 64 bit Windows OS.
