No "Compiler Options" menu & dialog...?
« on: August 04, 2006, 09:41:01 pm »
Hi fellas.

I was quite impressed when I first got C::B. My first compilation under Linux was successful. I followed the exact steps shown in the wiki, with the exception that I installed no WxWidgets Patch. Despite that, both installation and execution were sucessful.

By the way I'm using SuSE 10.0 and 10.1, and I'm compiling WxWidgets on my own. C::B is version 1.0rc2 from the site.

The thing is, I tried to replicate the process in another machine, also with SuSE 10.1. I followed the esact same steps (I made them into a script). And C::B configured well, installed correctly, no errors whatsoever. I just saw a strange warning (which I didn't managed to read correctly) about "files in 'src/src' seems to be moved". Whatever, C::B compiled and installed OK.

Then, when I started C::B, it worked just fine... except that, under the "Settings" menu, the "Compiler" menu options is gone!! The menu now reads: "Environment -- Editor -- Plugin's Setings -- Separator -- Import/Export cfg".

Not only that, but the Build menu is also completely gone, and the "Project tree" submenu does not open anymore, even if I open a project.

Is there something strange, maybe a bug? Or am I missing something?

My ./configure for C::B reads:

Code: bash
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/codeblocks CC=/usr/local/gcc34/bin/gcc-34 CXX=/usr/local/gcc34/bin/g++-34

(I'm using GCC 3.4.4 as GCC 4.1.0 presents problems according to the wiki, and I had a 3.4.4 prevoiusly available; WxWidgets was also compiled with this GCC version)

and the only other previously edited environment variables (with respect to the SuSE defaults) are:

Code: bash
ACLOCAL_FLAGS=--acdir=/opt/Wx/share/aclocal
MACHTYPE=
("/opt/Wx" is where my WxWidgets is installed; "MACHINE" is empty, previously read i686-suse-linux)


A search on the forums (by "no compiler menu") took me to a topic where the dissapearance of the build menu was the issue, but the symptoms and configuration of that case were different from mine.

Any information on this whould be welcome, thanks.

Seems the compiler plugin didn't load. Check the logs for clues...
Be patient!
This bug will be fixed soon...

You might also want to check out the latest version of the source from SVN.

Hi...

Thanks for the answers.

I'm still getting "intermitent" build problems with the compiler plugin... sometimes the build gets it right, sometimes it doesn't. But the problem is essentially solved if I issue a "make && make install" again, so for now is not that of a problem.

I didn't knew about SVN (I'm really outdated with that kind of dev tools) so I'm checking it out.

Thanks you all.
