build bot in the github, I see one nice project

[Grit Clef]

Not in that way. I just came up with an idea, that is, using cbp2make to generate Makefiles, and make using that. I am trying. See http://github.com/zxunge/winstyle-codeblocks-bins

Well, I haven't used that cbp2make plugin before. Hope you will make success.

But why a lot of undefined errors?

My guess:

Code

-Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--no-undefined  -lwxmsw32u -lshfolder -ltxml -lwxscintilla_cb -lsquirrel -lgdi32

is that the

Code

-lwxmsw32u

should be put "after" the

Code

-lwxscintilla_cb

I'm working on making a Windows-style build; i.e. build cb using cb through cmdline.

I'm not sure whether the codeblocks.exe could run in pure "command line mode". Hopefully it could.

Another idea is that we may try some virtual desktop in windows runner?

such as this discussion:

Github action virtual display resolution for windows server 2019  community Discussion #49112

[Grit Clef]

That's exactly the answer! But I don't know why it was successful when using CB projects, while unsuccessful when using cbp2make.

That is the error I get when I use an non windows compatible zip command. I think it is the "\*" that is the main cause of the issue.

The suggested zip command is from our wiki page:

[4.3 ZIP](https://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/MinGW_installation#ZIP)

And I think you are using the zip command from 7zip?

Because from this file:

https://github.com/zxunge/winstyle-codeblocks-bins/blob/main/.github/workflows/main.yml

I don't find you install a zip tool.

EDIT:

Code

            zip
            unzip
            p7zip

I think you are using the zip command from msys2's mingw32 port? I haven't used that zip tool before.

[Grit Clef]

That zip would not work; I have tried several other distributions, but none of them worked.

[ollydbg]

Zip file path separator - Stack Overflow

or

windows - Zip files expand with backslashes on Linux, no subdirectories - Super User

You can see that the zip file format should always use "/".

Can we hack the cb2make plugin?

I just looked at the source code of cb2make project, I see this line:

Code

void CPlatform::Assign(const CPlatform& Platform)
{
 m_OS_Type  = Platform.m_OS_Type;
 m_Active   = Platform.m_Active;
 m_Cmd_Null = Platform.m_Cmd_Null;
 m_Cmd_Copy = Platform.m_Cmd_Copy;
 m_Cmd_Move = Platform.m_Cmd_Move;
 m_Cmd_Make = Platform.m_Cmd_Make;
 m_Tool_Make = Platform.m_Tool_Make;
 //m_Cmd_TestFile        = Platform.m_Cmd_TestFile;
 m_Cmd_RemoveFile      = Platform.m_Cmd_RemoveFile;
 m_Cmd_ForceRemoveFile = Platform.m_Cmd_ForceRemoveFile;
 //m_Cmd_TestDir    = Platform.m_Cmd_TestDir;
 m_Cmd_MakeDir      = Platform.m_Cmd_MakeDir;

 m_LibraryPrefix    = Platform.m_LibraryPrefix;
 m_StaticLibraryExtensions = Platform.m_StaticLibraryExtensions;
 m_DynamicLibraryExtensions = Platform.m_DynamicLibraryExtensions;

So, we can hack the "m_PathDelimiter" variable? for Windows system?

There is an option for msys that should fix the issue under msys2 and may fix it for the poster.
I was planning to test it; but, the issue I had was fixed by an Msys2 packager.

Code

        Manage platforms:
                cbp2make --config platform [-msys|-unix|-windows|-mac] [-pwd <print_dir_command>]
                         [-cd <change_dir_command>] [-rm <remove_file_command>]
                         [-rmf <remove_file_forced>] [-rmd <remove_dir_command>]
                         [-cp <copy_file_command>] [-mv <move_file_command>]

Hi, Tim, thanks!

I think the OP should use the option "-msys" for generating the makefile for used by mingw32-make.exe. 

[Grit Clef]

OK, I will have a try.
Still the same...
I think those commands are from the project files.
