Changing Location of CodeBlocks Directory

<< < (2/2)

TDragon:
I haven't used 1.0rc2 in quite a while, but if I recall correctly the settings are saved under Documents and Settings/<username>/CodeBlocks.
You need four things to run a nightly build:
- 7Zip (or another program that can read .7z files, such as WinRAR)
- mingwm10.dll (comes with MinGW, found in your MinGW/bin or CodeBlocks/bin directory)
- wxmsw26u_gcc_cb.dll (a download link is provided in the Nightly Builds forum)
- The nightly build itself (again, a download link in the Nightly Builds forum)
So basically just install 7Zip if you haven't already, download the nightly build and put it wherever you want, and put the two dlls in the same directory as the nightly build.

Nope. They are saved in the registry.

killerbot:
even for mingwm10.dll we provide a link in the nightly build ;-)

As I remember for RC2 a lot of stuff was stored in the registry (windows). So even when RC3 or V1 comes you'll have to reenter all the stuff again, since at this moment there's no conversion tool.

See, this is the main reason why I don' want to do it.  But, if I do decide to do it, can you assure me that I won't ever have to do it again?  :lol:

Seriously, though, I already have 7zip and mingw, so I will install a nightly build sometime soon.  Just don't go changing the settings format on me again. :x :lol:
