How to install codeblocks on raspberry pi 4?

(1/3) > >>

MBajor:
As I understand, there is no binary release of codeblocks 20.03 for the arm architecture.
Unfortunately, all my attempts to build wxGTK-2.8.12 failed. Because wxGTK-2.8.12 requires gtk+-2.8.0 which is no longer supported by the "sudo apt-get install -y libwxgtk2.8-dev" command. Attempts to build gtk+-2.8.0 also failed.
wxWidgets 3.1.4 are installed normally but I can't build a codeblocks on wxWidgets 3.1.4.
Does anyone have any idea how to install a code block on the arm architecture (Raspberry pi os)?

AndrewCot:
I suggest having a read in the forum for the following search results "wxWidgets 3.1.4" to see if/how you can use wxWidgets 3.1.4 when building the CB trunk code.

MBajor:
Attempt to build code blocks on wxWidgets 3.1.4 gives me the following error after "make" command:

--- Quote ---main.cpp: In member function ‘bool MainFrame::OnDropFiles(wxCoord, wxCoord, const wxArrayString&)’:

oBFusCATed:
Why are you installing 3.1.4? Regular 3.0.x is probably enough.

Also to use recent wx you need this patch https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/code/11991/

MBajor:
After downloading the codeblocks from the SVN repository, the codeblocks was compiled and installed well even thru wxWidgets 3.1.4 (thank you AndrewCot and oBFusCATed). However, there was a problem when running it through the terminal. I'm getting an error:

--- Quote ---codeblocks: symbol lookup error: codeblocks: undefined symbol: cbEVT_DEBUGGER_UPDATED
--- End quote ---
"sudo apt-get update", "sudo rpi-eeprom-update -a" and "sudo apt full-upgrade"  did not give anything.
Small warnings like:

--- Quote ---libtool: warning: relinking 'libabbreviations.la'
...
libtool: warning: relinking 'libtodo.la'
...

--- End quote ---
were when installing the codeblocks however I don't think it's related.

Maybe the problem was in the installation of dependencies. How can this be verified?
