Yes, i build it with ./configure --prefix=/opt/wx/2.8  --enable-xrc  --enable-monolithic  --enable-unicode
but wx-config --prefix is giving me /usr instead of /opt/wx/2.8 and i added /opt/wx/2.8/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf

If it was build with the automake-system, the update-script is not needed.
And you should have pkg-config files for C::B in <prefix>/lib/pkgconfig .

I did not ask how you build wx, but how you build Code::Blocks .
The ./configure parameters are for wxWidgets and not for C::B.

Do not build wxWidget's on your own, unless you know exactly what you do (and what you want from it).
Configuring wxWidgets can be a non-trivial task (as your wx-config output shows), and on most linux distros there are packages available, that are known to work flawlessly.

Well, i followed strictly http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Linux  with ./bootstrap and then make/make install

EDIT: I just tried to build the plugin in C::B. When the Install is throwing and error that cant find HelloWorld.so i found in the build log that there is actually libHelloWorld.so:
--- Quote ---/usr/local/include/codeblocks/pluginmanager.h: In constructor ‘PluginManager::PluginRegistration::PluginRegistration()’:
/usr/local/include/codeblocks/pluginmanager.h:163:77: note: synthesized method ‘PluginInfo::PluginInfo()’ first required here

There is some (probably) bug with the name of the *.so file. How Ive made it to work:

--- Quote ---cp libHelloWorld.so HelloWorld.so
zip -j9 HelloWorld.cbplugin libHelloWorld.so HelloWorld.zip
--- End quote ---
Then I installed in with the plugin manager and run it:

--- Quote ---Loaded 1 plugins
HelloWorld
--- End quote ---

Edit:
In the Project Build options. "Pre/Post build" tab -> "Post-build steps" i found this:

--- Quote ---zip -j9 HelloWorld.zip manifest.xml
zip -j9 HelloWorld.cbplugin libHelloWorld.so HelloWorld.zip
--- End quote ---

Jenna:
Change the output name in the project's properties (tab "Build targets") and uncheck "Autogenerate filename prefix".
