    Hey Killerbot. Please kill the 20.03 version. It got so old. We are expecting a new release in this month. I hope you will upload it.

    Agreed. Nightly builds are fine for those want the latest and don't need hand holding. However, having an official release that is now 3.5 years old makes CodeBlocks seem like abandonware. Fewer people will see it as a viable option, alternative if it appears to be forgotten by the developers. If nothing else, the team has to be concerned with the optics.

    we are preparing a release, but we all have busy schedules, so sometimes it does not go as quick as we would like, but this year we will sure pull it of :-)

    Thanks. This is a quite useful, good development environment. I use it for cross-platform projects.

    Yeah. Nobody's calling you guys lazy, fwiw.

    I'm mostly thinking about the new users. Lots of books and sites recommend CodeBlocks. It's probably the best, most accessible alternative out there. That's why.

    Current users already know that CodeBlocks is updated relatively frequently. New users coming from one of those sites or having read one of those books? Not so much. They'll just do a cursory examination of the downloads area and say, "Oh. Wow. This hasn't been updated in years. I don't want to invest my time using something that's dead." and move along. I'm not sure that's what anybody wants. CodeBlocks has really become an invaluable resource to the indie and student communities who really aren't fans of Microsoft's offering.

    ANYWAY... Thanks for the update. Looking forward.

    Hi.
    After testing, I think the problems I reported in build 13300 have not been completely solved.
    wxSmith still has some problems.
    When I selected the 'shaped' property of one control, it's no problem.  But compiled and running, the same problem arised again. The good news is that CodeBlocks doesn't crash.

    You must set Proportion to 0 when Shaped is checked, this is a wxWidgets restriction. You can disable assertions in wxWidgets, see their docs.

    Thank you for your help in your busy schedule. :)
    When we select the "shape" property of a control, it would be helpful for users if wxSmith would give us a prompt window telling us that the "proportion" attribute must be set to "0".
    After all, not everyone is as knowledgeable about wxwidgets as you are.

    Hi.

    OS X version of this rev can be downloaded from my Google Drive.
    There is only a macOS-11.6 version.
    Note that it is not a notarized version of the application.

    32 bits version for Windows can also be found in the same place.

    Debian Bookworm and Bullseye (32 and 64 bits) can be installed from my repo.

    Regards

    I have noticed for a long time that keyboard shortcuts are saved on one computer, and reset on the other.
    Sometimes it does not save when assigned, the drawing is attached. Saves it after restarting the program.
    Windows 10.

    What did I do:
    1. Installed codeblocks-20.03;
    2. Copied and replaced files from this theme.

    Dear All.

    Thanks to all developers for the ongoing effort in the further development of Code::Blocks.

    After some month I decided use the new nightly 13344 (01.09.2023) to update Code::Blocks from the version used before 13107 (10.12.2022)

    Unfortunately, I had to face an issue again, that I have already reported for the nightly 22.01.2022 (12672) here:
    https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,24820.msg169254.html#msg169254.

    Code::Blocks is not able to recognize the compiler tool-chain configuration done in the conf-file by using global variables.
    Please see the attached zip-file for the current screenshots:
    • MinGW_12_2_0_64msvc_MSYS.conf : the conf-file I choose by using the personality dialogue.
    • CB_13344_compilers_autodetection.png: the first information page I get now regarding the missing compiler tool suit.
    • CB_13344_compiler_toolchain_executables.png: the partly overwritten list of build-tools actualy completly filed with global variables.
    • CB_13159_compiler_toolchain_executables.png: the correct ist of build-tools filed with global variables.

    As mentioned the same issue was already reported by me 22.01.2022 (12672).  You have solved the issue with the nightly from 06.02.2022 (12705).
    Thus, I hope the description there is detailed enough  and I don't have to repeat it here again. However, don't hesitate to ask me for details you miss.


    I tested some older releases between 13107 and 13344 to figure out when the issue was introduced again:
    • 13344 bug is present
    • 13268 bug is present
    • 13231 bug is present
    • 13166 bug is present
    • 13159 works as desired
    • 13107 works as desired

    Thus I assume that the issue was introduced again between the revision 13159 (22.01.2023) and the revision 13166 (29.01.2023).


    By the way: I'm working with windows 10 (frequently updated) on a laptop.

    Best Regards,
                         Eckard Klotz.

    Thank you for reporting and the exhaustive information.

    Commits in the range 13159-13166 are not related to global variables, are you sure 13159 works and 13166 does not?
