Hello.
I encounter the same problem sometimes, but if I try start again the application usually run successfully.
Is the problem stay if you install app-admin/gamin package?
--- Code: ---emerge -1av app-admin/gamin
--- End code ---
I see the error in your first message
--- Code: ---failed to find gam_server
--- End code ---

I installed today:
--- Code: --- app-admin/gamin
--- End code ---
and enabled FileManager pluging. Works fine. I guess that the CodeBlocks ebuild should be modified that it installs app-admin/gamin and dev-libs/libgamin. Will test and if appropriate file a bug report.

I already planing to modify ebuild among other changes (as co-maintainer). You could see the status in pull request. There are several changes and it could be take some time to check them by wxwidgets team.
The dependency of only dev-libs/libgamin was inherited from 16.01 ebuild. I was asked about dependency early of virtual/fam (app-admin/gamin or app-admin/fam) but I never encounter this crash until recent time during testing of ebuilds on the machine there I have no installed gam-server package. But on the second system it's instaled as dependency of samba and kcoreaddons (by USE="fam").
The "FileManager" plugin could be linking only with app-admin/gamin (but not with app-admin/fam or gfilemonitor from dev-libs/glib) that is meta package for dev-libs/libgamin and app-admin/gam-server. There is appropriate ticket in codeblocks bugzilla to update FileManager dependency in favor of more fresh library.
Also I'm planing to update codeblocks-9999.ebuild by syncing it with updated 17-12.r1 ebuild as current seems to be broken to build contrib-plugins (I have no idea why but updated works for me). It allows to install codeblocks from snv.
@oBFusCATed
could you confirm that you have installed app-admin/gam-server package besides dev-libs/libgamin
oBFusCATed:
Yes, I have app-admin/gamin.

Thank you. I'll try to update pull request for codeblocks-17.12-r1 this evening with dependency app-admin/gamin instead of dev-libs/libgamin.
Also I assume to remove from ebuild flag "-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks" and test after it: this additional flag came from 16.01.ebuild too
and I only now found that it was fixed in upstream on 2016-07-16 ticket 10875 and as I see there is no need in this check since 2017-03-24 ticket 11033.
I just recent became co-maintainer and don't know the prehistory of support this package in Gentoo.
