install a devpack ???
« on: June 25, 2006, 08:41:14 pm »
Hi all,

Is it possible to install a devpack with no internet connexion ?
I mean, I placed a devpack (already downloaded before) in the devpacks folder used by codeblocks.
But, this devpack is not present in the devpacks updater/installer (with 'downloaded but not installed' option).
It seems that the only way to install a devpack is to use the update server.
 
Is someone can help me ?

Thanks

After you start the plugin, you select unter "Filtering" the option "Downloaded, but not installed" and you chose in "Update server" an option.

Thanks for your reply :D, but I already did what you say.
The only options available in "Update server" are:
devpacks.org Community Devpaks
or
Dev-C++ primary devpacks server

and both need an internet connexion.
It's too bad that this plugin don't give the possibility to make it in an other way. :(

I found no option where you could, for exemple, select a folder in witch your downloaded your devpack and then install it,  just like the devpacks manager in Dev-C++.

Thanks anyway

devpacks are 7zip archives and you can unpack with 7zip and
take lib files -> CodeBlocks /lib
header files -> CodeBlocks /include
...

Thanks for the reply.

So I unpacked my  devpacks (FLTK 1.1.7) with 7zip, and I placed
the lib files in CodeBlocks /lib, and the header files in CodeBlocks /include/FL.
Now, after many trials (with no result) for linked the lib with the compiler, my question is:

How to configure manually (links, template etc..) the FLTK's library in CodeBlocks ?
(may I create an other post for that question ?)

Thanks for advance

Indeed, when the last nightly build is installed, you've got a new IDE  :D
Many things have changed (in a good way) and it's easy now to build an FLTK's project.

Thanks
