Latest Binary Release Compatability with Windows 7 Enterprise 64-Bit
H:
I'm wondering if the latest binary release is compatible with Windows 7 Enterprise 64-Bit. I saw this topic, but the response wasn't very helpful.
If it isn't compatible, what workarounds are there or alternatives?
oBFusCATed:
What release are you talking about? 8.02 or the latest nightly?
The nightlies don't have a compiler, nor an installer.
8.02 is the last official/"stable" release and the link you posted has the answer....
Search the forum, there are million+ threads about the vista/7/mingw problem.
This is the second thread I answer about this problem today :(
So www admins, please post on the main page that the 8.02 release is not compatible with vista/7 and place the instructions how to get working compiler
This is the second time I ask for this. If there is no person having time to do it, please give me access, so I can do it!
H:
Or you could do it here, or provide links to those million+ threads. I have searched and haven't found any besides that one other. I'm not a frequent visitor and am less familiar with topics that have come up than you probably are.
oBFusCATed:
There is something like forum menu with the following commands: HOME, HELP, SEARCH, etc
Press the search button and type "vista" in the field click the "search/submit" button and read!

As far as I know, there are problems with older MinGW releases, including the version shipped with 8.02-release, but not with C::B itself.
And this is stated clearly on the download-page.
--- Quote from: http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/5 ---NOTE: The compiler included in codeblocks-8.02mingw-setup.exe does not work reliable on Windows Vista. Please do not use it and install a more recent one from MinGW. That is because at the time Code::Blocks was released there was no working GCC for Windows Vista available. Meanwhile there is.
