It's what I thought.
- You have your working C::B which is in Program\ Files or /usr/local or what ever. (Hopefully the night builds see above).
- You grab the SVN trunk of C::B open CodeBlocks.cbp up. and compile. It will compile to your source directory since it cannot overwrite the Instance which is currently running. Lets call this one C::B2
- Update.bat prepare every thing in the source tree. (For C::B2)
- I debug my new stuff on C::B2 (with the command line switch that lets it run a second instance), I change resources, code the lot. Compile and debug and so on... (Debugger is in Original C::B)
- I like my new version better. So I make a release version which also builds the installer.
- Exit C::B And Install it to program\ files. Now I load the new One. (I'm My own beta tester)

Is there any other way? So I guess Update.bat could be inside the .cbp, or at least we can make an intree-update.bat.
