MinGW is the distribution providing GDC on Windows.

For a nightly you have to install the compiler yourself.
Very famous build of GCC around here is the TDM's version, it is pretty easy to install.

Ok i am uninstalling the old 10.05 version of code::blocks and downloaded the nightly version!
I hope a rookie like me would be able to cope up with the complexities of a nightly!

I am now downloading the TDM mingw gcc compiler from here http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/download! Hope all goes well!!

EDIT: Successfully installed the compiler but still the dropdown list of compilers in C:B does not contains mingW compiler.
How to use the compiler i just installed with C::B

"GNU Gcc compiler" uses MinGW-compiler on windows.

Ya thats exactly what i wanted to hear!

Anyways, i am just used to writing codes in one file and compiling it!! Thats all!! But code::blocks has so many features!
Looking forware for some real programmin!
