Codeblocks on Mac OSX10.8.4 always crashes, exception type EXC_CRASH (SIGILL)

[DaveyC]

Hi,

Tonight I installed CodeBlocks on my MacBook Pro but sadly, when I open an existing project or create a new one the program crashes.  The problem reporter shows the following:

http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,17709.msg124580.html#msg124580 is an older post with the exact same problem that doesn't have a solution listed.  Any help would be great

Well it looks more like a wx error to me. Unfortunately to my knowledge nobody of the devs has 10.8.x available, so unless you are willing to dig into it yourself (which requires self-compiling) it will be hard to help...

Hi,

Thanks for the fast reply.  I don't have the time right now for that and probably not the ability either.  I'm just an Objective C programmer!  ANyway, I mainly want to use Code::Blocks for dev on my PC and there it works fine.

Cheers
