Building FLTK with Code::Blocks/ mingw

Very well.
I just thought that if CB is shipped with mingw
the problems that arise when trying to use a favoured lib (FLTK) should be of any interest?

mingw/ gcc is a compiler it is not an IDE/ Editor.

THIS is just that kind of arrogance of open source scene
that will keep the scene low ... until the end.
Bravo!

And, you are just the type of ignorant newbie that resulted in me suggesting Code::Blocks not ship with a compiler!

Edit: People like you who can not understand directions are not easy for any group to help.
Code::Blocks has never shipped with either msys or msys2 which your directions likely mentioned.

I understand what you mean.
Sorry if I offended.

But do you understand what I mean?

All this open source tool chain becomes so unconvenient to use
(especially for the ones that want to migrate from M$ finally).
And even more if you "pull the parts of the chain apart" even more.
For just a simple task to build a simple GUI app.

Yes, probably you are right, the best place for my question would be
the forum of fltk.
(Where I would get the info that mingw alone is not sufficient for
building it ... need even more additional tools ... without end).

But maybe it's not the worst idea to offer some info about that
in CB context ... as it uses these compilers and libs.

Make it more convenient or you will shrink to nothing.
Which would be sad, and leave the place for $$.

stahta01:
Did you even read the directions or this website rules?

nji:
I don't understand what your question has to do with all this.

But, no I usually do not read any "directions".
I rely on what feels right.

Asked the other way round:
Did you even read what I try to tell you, Mr. 6823 posts?
