SOLVED-Help in CodeBlocks 13.12 and Irrlicht 1.8.1 Setup

(1/3) > >>

nightrobin:
Good day,
I just want to ask for help in setting up my Codeblocks 13.12 (with CodeBlocks' own MinGW) with Irrlicht 1.8.1, I can't seem to find any useful information/tutorial about it.
And the default Irrlicht Project in Codeblocks seems outdated and not running.
Also I want to know how to set this up manually and step by step.

I have windows 7.

Thanks in advance  :D

Read this CB FAQ http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=FAQ-Compiling_%28general%29#Q:_I_would_like_to_compile_a_project_using_some_non-standard_libraries._How_can_I_indicate_to_CodeBlocks_that_these_libraries_and_include_files_exist.3F

The "For your project" section is the right choice to use; the "For global environment" is normally the wrong choice to use.

I am downloading irrlicht-1.8.1 right now to verify the CB Wizard does NOT work.

I suggest posting the type of error next time you have an error; it would also be good to have the actual error.
Not doing that implies you are a newbie this implies user error is the most likely type of error.

--- Quote ---Ok, I just walked another person through this who had the same trouble. Basically he was using the Mingw coming with C::B (while I build the dll with the official MinGW which doesn't seem to be compatible in this case). And the trick was in the end rebuilding Irrlicht.dll and using that. But he also had a few troubles at first - which mainly where caused because he first didn't notice that the dll was not yet rebuild.

The above was my guess of the likeliest NON user error issue.

I am still going to confirm that as the cause.

Seems to be at least be a minor CB Wizard script issue because I got a warning of something like "Please select a valid location".

After that I got a build error that might be caused by template code being out of date or unknown reason.

After I replaced the default code with the 01.HelloWorld example I got a error based on the Library being built by a different version of MinGW GCC.

Edit: Google error of "the procedure entry point __gxx_personality_v0 could not be located in the dynamic link library libstdc++6" got this link.

Edit2: The suggestion of stackoverflow.com above failed to fix issue; likely still MinGW Version conflict caused error.

Steps to Build Irrlicht HelloWorld under Windows 7 32-bit using default MinGW GCC

Step 1: Irrlicht's CB Library Project
   Step 1A: Open CB Project Irrlicht-gcc.cbp in /source/Irrlicht
   Step 1B: Select target "Win32 - Debug - dll"
   Step 1C: Build CB Project
   Note: Step 1B took a very long time as in about an hour for me on my slow computer; when I built all the targets.

Step 2: Test Library using Irrlicht's CB HelloWorld Project
   Step 2A: Open CB Project HelloWorld.cbp in examples/01.HelloWorld
   Step 2B: Build CB Project HelloWorld.cbp
