How to use the plugins of old SDK for new CodeBlocks?

Oh dear... why would you want to do this?! :o ??? You basically screw our crash protection in case the SDK changes.
This will definitely not make it into trunk. For re-compiling 3rd party plugins in an easy way if really needed (in case SDK version changed) I've prepared an article in the WiKi based on nightly builds. An alternative is always to wait for the next nightly.
For 3rd party plugin developers I can offer the following in advance:
If their repo is based on subversion we can integrate it as remote repository into the main C::B repo. Then it remains independent but people can easily have the sources from one place. (Like we did with the FortranProject plugin for example).
Surely this requires maintaining the plugin to at least SDK compatibility. If a 3rd party plugin seem dead one can ask to take ownership of an existing repo to continue development.

I Check the DLL file.
Codeblocks couldn't
wxDynamicLibrary* LoadLibrary(const wxString& filename)
so failed.
=============================================
wxDynamicLibrary* LoadLibrary(const wxString& filename)
{
Libs::iterator it = s_Libs.find(filename);
if (it != s_Libs.end())
{
// existing lib./codeblocks
it->second.ref++;
return it->second.lib;
}
// new lib
it = s_Libs.insert(s_Libs.end(), std::make_pair(filename, RefCountedLib()));
it->second.lib = new wxDynamicLibrary;
it->second.ref = 1;
it->second.lib->Load(filename);
return it->second.lib;
}
=============================================
Normal DLL the last lines ,as follows:

I was not planning on submitting it. My purpose was simple convenience for not having to relink my plugins as often. (And it has a checkbox - off by default :).)

I sort of expected as much... my patch does not have any magic code in it. All it does is let Code::Blocks try to load the plugin.
If you do not have access to the plugin's source, it seems your only real option to use the plugin would to stay with an older version Code::Blocks.
