Ubuntu CodeBlocks help?
« on: April 24, 2011, 01:57:29 pm »
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I went through what I think was all the proper channels to install CodeBlocks. Now it's installed and it builds fine, but if there's a problem in my code, instead of telling me what the problem is, it just puts a red block by the problem and doesn't actually bring up a problem screen. Also, it never allows me to use the debugger. Is there's something I still need to install?

If there is an error, it's listed in the "Build messages" log, no popup window will occur.
To be able to debug, you need an installed debugger (gdb) and you have to use projects.
Debugging in single files (not part of a project) is currently not supported.
