Compile Errors when building Code::Blocks source

GameCodingNinja:
I'm one of those crazy people who compile their own Linux via "Linux From Scratch" so the only way I'm going to be able to try your IDE is if I compile the source code. Since I've recently built my current Linux I'm running on, I'm using the newest compiler available (gcc 6.2.0). That may or may not be contributing to the problem. I'm also using the newest wxWidgets (3.1.0).

Attached is the results of the configure.

The compile didn't get to far before it error-ed out.

Any help or patches would be appreciated. ;D

For some reason C++11 is not enabled, might be a problem with configure or something else. You could try the latest CodeBlocks version from svn, but i doubt you will have much luck with your configuration. At least on Windows CodeBlocks is still not usable with wxWidgets > 2.8.12, and with MinGW-w64 6.2.0 i can't compile wxWidgets 2.8.12 anymore, at least not in a way that it doesn't crash :).

oBFusCATed:
GameCodingNinja: use the latest trunk sources or switch to wx3.0. wx3.1 is the development version. Or recompile your wx3.1 in a way that doesn't require enabled c++11 support.

yvesdm3000:
You're not so crazy since I build codeblocks for myself too because I don't have root access on my professional development machine

You can do:
export CXXFLAGS="-std=c++11"
configure
make

which kinda forces C++11 support.

GameCodingNinja:
Thanks for all your help!

export CXXFLAGS="-std=c++11" was the kicker. It compiled. I initially tried doing ./configure CXXFLAGS="-std=c++11" but that didn't work.

The IDE ran but crashed. I'm sure it's related to wxWidgets (3.1.0). I'm going to fall back to 2.8.12.

I'm now trying to figure out which plugins I want to build.
