Hi All,

After ~2 days (and some trouble in building Code::Blocks and wxWidgets 2.9.4), I have finally managed to install Code::Blocks 10.05 and wxWidgets 2.9.4 on my computer (which runs Windows 8 Developer Preview, Evaluation Copy Build 8400 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 RC), hence both of these programs (i.e. Code::Blocks and wxWidgets 2.9.4) should be compatible with Windows 8 :D.

Best Wishes.

Hi All,

Sorry for the typo error in my previous post - it should read 'Windows 8 Release Preview', not 'Windows 8 Developer Preview'  :-[. I've just noticed this error when logging into the Forum today (posted this post last night, and was half-asleep ...  :().

I sincerely apologize for the error.

I don't fully understand your post: Is there a question, or are you just saying it runs under Windows 8?

Hi Morten,

I apologize if the previous post wasn't clear.

No, it wasn't a question - it's just a note to say that C::B 10.05/wxWidgets 2.9.4 runs in Windows 8 Release Preview (I've changed the title of this post to reflect this as well).

Thanks.

I tried installing Code::Blocks 10.05 with MinGW the day the customer preview came out. Took 3 mins though, not 2 days.

It (unsurprisingly) worked fine, for as good as anything works under FacebookTwittOS Windows 8.
