Unofficial Code::Blocks installers for Windows x86 & x64 Janurary 2022
gerwin:
Hello AndrewCot,
Thanks for your efforts.
Me and some other guys at msfn.org were discussing about the latest version of Code::Blocks able to run on Windows XP SP3 x86.
And unfortunately release v20.03 had the symbols browser disabled on purpose. Making release release v17.12 the most viable option. It would be interesting to try your unofficial x86 SVN, to see if it has a proper symbols browser. But I cannot try it, because this link does not work anymore...:

Please advise.

Sadly, the version of Dr. MinGW used (0.9.1) does not run on XP-SP3, so the program will not start (I have just tried).

For the v20.03 release this incompatibility can be solved, or at least worked around, with the method posted by SiZiOUS here:

Which comes down to using Dr. MinGW 0.8.2 binary files instead

I have uploaded here a zip containing the Codeblocks folder, you can use it as a portable application (no installation). This link will last 24 hours from now.
I am a C::B developer, the files are official and updated to revision 12857 (head-1).

Thanks for compiling and sharing that Win32 rev12857!
It seems to startup fine on Windows XP x86 with the mentioned drmingw-0.8.2 files, and it has the symbols browser. :)
Noted that the link will expire soon, I will keep it stored locally.
(A minute ago I also found a similar Win32 package in google drive from Xaviou here:

Working too, but somehow it has all these .a libraries in the root of the program?)
