Ceniza:
      You are right, please excuse me for my impertinence. But I think the code editor window can maximize though it adopts FireFox style.  or it could adopts eclipse style. do you think so?
      I wish it will be in the future.

Hey, yo! How about syntax highlighting optimizations? I have a big delay on a startup on AMD Turion 64 X2 2.0GHz and 1GB RAM with 14 tabs with ~300 code lines in C in each tab. I don't think, that this is normal... thanx

I suggest turning off code completion and then the other plugins except for the ones needed to verify where the issues is. I run with just the compiler plugin on and I have syntax highlighting that works. Also, I suggest downloading the newest nightly build for your OS and posting in the correct nightly build thread.
( The correct nightly build is the one that is the same as the build you are running.)

Hmm, after I updated Code::Blocks to 05 january 2007 yesterday I think I'm getting problems with Code::Blocks' DDE. If I double click a file associated with Code::Blocks inside explorer.exe, the explorer.exe process freezes until I close Code::Blocks and then I got some error about DDE. I tried removing the DDE keys from registry, then it worked nice, but Code::Blocks gave me lots of errors because it couldn't open those keys. I'm using Windows XP SP2.

yes this problem started somewhere around 28-29 november of 2006.
I think if you turn off CodeCompletion, it might work again; Could you verify.

We were kind of expecting it might be due to a windows update, since the changes made at that time to cc have nothing to do with DDE, unless we have a timing/race issue.

I haven't updated my Windows recently atleast. The version I was using until I upgraded was "Version 1.0 revision 3164 (2006-11-01 12:09:43) gcc 3.4.5 Windows/unicode" and I didn't have any problems with that one. I tried Settings -> Editor -> Code-completion and symbols browser -> [X] Disable code-completion. That didn't work atleast, maybe you meant disabling it some other way? ^^

edit: When I removed "[ ] Check & set file associations (Windows only)", and deleted the ddeexec keys from the registry CB stopped complaining about being unable to open keys atleast. Only problem is I get lots of Code::Blocks instances now instead of just one, but I'll probably get used to it ^^

edit2: Seems like it only freezes if there are no Code::Blocks currently running, so I'll just launch Code::Blocks first and then open files from explorer.exe as usual. I tried packing the files in winrar etc too, just to see if it only was explorer.exe freezing, but winrar.exe froze too.

I dont if you meane the same, since some Nightly's, when I try to open a file from winrar  or explorer CB apears and shows the start-page.
Then only if I minimize it, CB comes up and shows the file I opened.
Im currently using the 5th January Build.

In Codecompletion line 948

Code

void CodeCompletion::OnAppDoneStartup(CodeBlocksEvent& event)
{
    // Let the app startup before parsing
    // This is to prevent the Splash Screen from delaying so much. By adding the
    // timer, the splash screen is closed and Code::Blocks doesn't take so long
    // in starting.
    m_timer.Start(200, wxTIMER_ONE_SHOT);
}

Line 948. CC still does not have an event.Skip() on its  EVT_APP_STARTUP_DONE routine.

You might want to put one there and see if the problem goes away.

Will check with Yiannis, if CodeCompletion should do the event skip.

Yes it should .

Oh, I found out Code Completion was a plugin. When I disabled it in the plugins window instead of just Editor DDE stuff seems to work. Sorry, my bad =(
