Not sure exactly where this should go... I haven't used CodeBlocks for a couple of months, but I just decided to try recent nightlies. I downloaded CodeBlocks, mingw10m.dll and the wxWidgets dll from this thread, extracted everything to the same folder, and tried running CodeBlocks. All I get is a popup box:
---------------------------
codeblocks.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
I've tried a couple of nightlies a few weeks back, and all of them fail to start, although not in the same way. One complained about a missing entry point in codeblocks.dll, and one or two simply crashed. I thought maybe it had something to do with me trying to run it off of my USB drive, so I moved it onto my hard drive, with the same results. I then tried it on a different PC; same thing. Both computers are running XP SP2, one with the latest updates, and I'm not sure about the other.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
EDIT:
OK, not sure what I did, but now it's saying
---------------------------
codeblocks.exe - Entry Point Not Found
---------------------------
The procedure entry point . could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
What the heck?
EDIT2:
This is bizarre. I don't really know what's going on. I move it to the C drive, it works. My USB drive, E and F (two different partitions), it doesn't. My school network share, H, it starts up, but freezes. Folder names don't seem to matter. Am I doing something wrong, or is CB picky about the drives it will run off of?
Or, it could have something to do with filesystems. C is NTFS, E and F are FAT32, and H is network mounted.
EDIT3: Doesn't work when running it off of a CD in drive D, either.
EDIT4: And now it won't run off of drive C. I give up.
