Some general questions about Code::Blocks

(1/2) > >>

ReiKo:
Hello,

I am C++ programmer and just now I did realise there is Code:Blocks IDE.

Well, to be honest I'm somewhat confused, so if you could please answer my questions I would be thankful :


1. What exactly are "nightly builds", are they are some sort of "beta" versions of Code::Blocks? I did read part about it on Wikipedia but I don't understand it fully.


2. I would ofcourse like that my Code::Blocks IDE is up to date, but I also want it to works properly and stable : Should I download latest nightly build or should I download Stable Relese of Code::Blocks ( that has been published in 2008 :( ) ?

3. Where can I download latest "nightly build"  : I was looking here http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5358  but I cant say wich is the most up to date "nightly build" (btw. I use Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 x64) and does "nightly build" include MinGW32 compiler because I need it in bundle?


Thanks.

Hi ReiKo,

the nightly builds are not beta and stable. You can download the files from http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,20.0.html.

Also, nightliy build was not bundled with a MinGW, you should install one like TDM-GCC:

ReiKo:
Hello,

Thanks on quick answers.

Could you recommend me : Should I install nightly build and mingw32 or should I just get stable relese of Code::Blocks bundled with MinGw and I should be just fine?

ollydbg:
My suggestion:
1, Install TDM_GCC
2, unzip a nightliy build.
3, run codeblocks.exe

That's all. :D
