Cannot Build Code::Blocks 12.11 from source on CentOS 4.8
blazar:
Hi,
I tried to build the Code::Blocks 12.11 from source on linux machine with CentOS 4.8.
I built the source of 10.05 before (simply follow instructions in BUILD file) and it works fine.
But when I tried to build the 12.11, I faced difficulties

You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.

I'm not familiar with the autotools, and I tried search with the macro name, and I found someone post about setting env

set the env and ./bootstrap become

I tried to ignore and just then configure and make, but it showed errors.
./configure --prefix=[install-folder] --with-contrib-plugins=all,-spellchecker,-NassiShneiderman --with-wx-prefix=[wx-install-folder]

You can now build Code::Blocks by issuing 'make'.
When the build is complete, become root and install
it by issuing 'make install'.

Here are the list of version of tools I think may related to the issue.
m4 --version
m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.16
automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.12.6
autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69
gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-11)
wx-config --version
2.8.12
Note: I'm not the root of the machine, I wish to install it as a user and with different versions at same time
(we are currently using 10.05, I just want to figure out if 12.11 has features we would like to upgrade.)
Thanks.
oBFusCATed:
C::B requires at least GCC 4.0 (stl tr1 is used throughout the code)
Biplab:
CentOS 4 is too old. It has reached EOL on Feb 29, 2012. Use a newer version - it's free anyway.
bigal:
CentOS is up to 6.2 now. Time for a change?
blazar:
Thanks everyone.
I am not sure if the company's machines can update OS(have their consideration), I will try to build on newer machine.
