Can someone enlighten me? Thomas?

Well, we're having one issue after the other (the broken batch builds being the last in a long row) and somehow every problem seems to be related in some way to either DDE directly or a change which was necessary to make DDE work. Maybe that's just my impression, but it looks to me that way. :lol:

These issues are not related to DDE at all...
Anyhow, writing a replacement for DDE would take great amounts of time (which we don't have) and testing under all supported platforms.
It's not worth it.
We will just fix this batch-build issue and go on with other, important, things ;)

Also it was DDE that was causing projects to be loaded twice because Windows was sending the file on the command line and through DDE.  That was hidden away until the project file version was updated from v1.3 to v1.4.

However, ditching it may not be worth the effort.  But on the other hand, I'm all for working on different ways to do things (plenty of free time, ya'know ;) (or should that be :(? ;))).

I've just finished knocking together a WM_COPYDATA IPC system.  It runs great under Windows XP SP2 in unicode mode.  I'm just running the ANSI wxWidgets+Code::Blocks build now to test it on my Windows ME system in the morning.

Another peculiarity appears in recent builds (since about 5-6 days) for me.

Header files are not opened any more. Neither when double-clicked, nor when run from the console. The IDE does start, so the file associations are good, but nothing happens. Source and resource files work just fine.
Although I don't know why this happens, I feel tempted to attribute this to the DDE workarounds, too ;)

Anyone else experiencing this?

i don't have this issue with svn rev 2285
my header files open fine for editing
