Building Excel .xll addins with Code::Blocks & MingW

(1/3) > >>

Ninds:
Hello
There is a release ( be it an alpha ) of xlw that now supports building Excel addins ( .xlls ) with Code::Blocks ( MingW ).
Upto now XLW has only had  support for Dev-C++.  I am discussing deprecating Dev-C++ support in favour of Code::Blocks.
Any feedback from Code:Blocks users would be very helpful.
The xlw sourceforge page is at :   https://sourceforge.net/projects/xlw/
The version in question is 4.0.0alpha0

Not bad. Looks good to me. Nice to know such "things" exist. I have been a VBA dev for years...

Thanks, glad you liked it.
With XLW you can also build XLLs with VB.NET, but you need another unmentionable IDE ;-)

xlw4.0 has now been released as Beta. It can be downloaded at

Nice. Is it only for creating excel plugins, or can you also write C++ applications reading & writing to XLS files this way?
