Code::Blocks is based on wxWidgets which is a cross platform C++ GUI framework. So C::B is based on the wxWidgets DLL. To save download bandwidht the DLL has been seperated from the C::B IDE itself. So once you've downloaded the DLL (maybe it's best to place it in the system32 folder, at least on Windows ;-)) you are basically able to run any application that is linked against this library. All nighlys of C::B will, until a new version of wxWidgets is released and C::B is adopted accordingly. You will probably also require the MinGW support library (mingwm10.dll) - in the nightly posts, too - if you haven't MinGW installed.
C::B shifted from wxWidgets 2.6.1 to 2.6.2 after RC2. That's why the nightly (which is BTW typically a Unicode application) will not work with the wxWidgets DLL that ships with RC2. So please - not only because of that - don't mix RC2 with any later version of C::B.
Maybe this clarifies things a little.
With regards, Morten.

Yeah, this is a little fresh to me........Actually, the how I started this was the main download of the 1.0 was installed and then I just raw dumped the update into that file......and the mingwm10.dll was already installed so I didn't have to worry about that......Then actually I didn't put the wxWidgets to System32 file.....I read the error and just dumped it in the main directory of the code::blocks because that was the first path specified in the error....
I just got shook up because i'm not use to doing things manually...
:?

I don't mean to be a jerk (because I really must seem that way at this point) but I still don't see an access for the documentation?!?!.......I know with Microsoft if you are in a keyword and hit F1.....help will come up......and if you right click there is no help either........I go to the help menu and the options are "About, Tips and Plugins".....Well that's cool, but About only helps me to help you to find out what the problem is with my distrubution.......Tips are cool but just over the software usage....and plugins are stuff that is't even relivent to what i'm looking for.......
So where is the help? Maybe i'm just a MSVC++ spoon feed MSDN crybaby but I learn from that stuff......I'm just getting back in to C++ so this really would be helpfull....Because i'm not a programming newbie but I have only had two college classes over C++ and they were both bad so my ambitions are quite high in compairison....
If there isn't a sufficent programming guide i'm willing to help for the next guy.....but I wouldn't press and complain if I wasn't almost completely sold on what you guys are doing....because just the function of this software has been unreal since the update. Up to this point Code::Blocks has done almost everything I have wanted or could hope for so I believe in what your doing...
But I'm a little boggled on this...

You need a Nightly Build, it will not work on CodeBlocks 1.0 RC2.

I think your missing the point (because I did follow your email, and I have yesterday's build)........I'm now finding out that i'm complaining because code::blocks is better than this......it maybe a cool feature but seems to me that something better can be done...or maybe i'm just and idealist...
But I have MSDN and I frequent Google so much more then I would like to admit.....
Maybe i'm just expecting too much but it seems like a software that is so advanced would have a good documentation system.....
I'm mostly saying this out of concern rather than self interest.......because i really want to help....instead of complain.....
Giving into Microsoft is too easy........I've found.......
