How do you compile/link HEAD w/o compiling whole Monty?
« on: December 09, 2005, 04:58:30 pm »
When I modify then build (with codeblocks RC2 ) wxKeyBinder from HEAD, it creates
the libwxkeybinder.a  Then it quits. I've had to ReBuild the whole monty
to test and debug.

Is there a way to compile wxkeybinder only and then link to the already
built libraries.

I'm using the NEWBUILD.cbp that came with HEAD. I'd appreciate any
suggestions.

thanks
Pecan

As far as i know, newbuild was implemented after rc2, so it should not work...
Try with a newer release.

Ok, I'll bite on that.

I have two version of C::B. Rc2 and HEAD.

When I try to compile Head with Head, it says it cannot
replace the codeblocks executable. So it does no good to
use it to compile itself.

When I compile Head with Rc2 (it work fine), but it behaves
as described in my previous message.

What am I missing here...

thanks

you need to run head from "src/output", not "src/devel".

after compiling, you need to run update.bat which copies files from src/devel to src/output, besides packing zips and stuff.

right. :) that's why it's called "devel".
