Unicode and XP required

(1/3) > >>

Angel Portal:
I do have C??B running on my Win 98 quite fine.
But I am trying to install the night build now!
I downloaded the dll for C::B and the nightly.
Opened in the same directory with 7zip as it was told me.
It appears the follwoing files over there.

codeblocks.dll
codeblocks.exe
codeblocks.lnk
wxscintilla.dll
mingwm10.dll
excndl.dll
cb_console_runner
wxmsw26u_gcc_cb.dll
share (directory)

I tried to run the codeblocks, but it says.
The program uses unicode, Windows XP needed.

But I have the RC 2 running on my Win98?
To get the unicode version os those files I have to recompile something?

Ceniza:
RC2 runs on Windows 9x because it's an ANSI release, but most nightlies are Unicode and won't run on any of those Windows versions (there's a way to do that but it seems nobody tried it or got it working).

The latest ANSI nightly was released on May 14th (I couldn't find a more recent one) and that's what you'll have to use in the meanwhile.

After installing the last ansi nighty build, you could download source from svn, recompile it in ansi mode and have the last build... it's quite well explained in wiki.

I don't know but Unicode is winning now :)


--- Code: (cpp) ---User kb = GetUser("killerbot");

if (kb.Ok() && thisPost.ReadBy(kb))
{
  AskUser(kb, "Don't you think it's time for another ANSI build? :)");
}
--- End code ---

Sorry, I just felt like adding something more :P
