Combining CodeBlocks and WxDevCPP

(1/2) > >>

Shaba1:
I am a new C++ programmer. Although I dabbled in C in the mid 90s. I also a an intermediate level Java programmer. I just download wxDevCpp.(Dev CPP Core 4.9.9.2, Form Designer Version 6.8)

Is the a way of using code blocks at the IDE/front in to this compiler WITHOUT destroying the wxDevCpp interface?

Thanks in Advance.

Game_Ender:
Yes its called wxSmith a wxWidgets RAD pluggin for Code::Blocks.  Do a forum search, and notice that it comes installed by default with the nightlies on windows.

thomas:
Not 100% sure that was what he was asking.

I understand you want to use the gcc compiler that came with wxDevCpp with Code::Blocks? That is possible without any special changes. The only thing that you will possibly have to do is specify the path that points to the compiler.

If you want to use the Form Designer component with Code::Blocks, no, that does not work. But there is wxSmith as Game Ender pointed out, and using this will of course not destroy Form Designer.

EXACTLY what I wanted thomas. Thank you for taking the time to READ AND answer the question. I would like to ask you some other ones if I get stuck at some point.

Game_Ender:
Sorry I did not understand your question, didn't quite understand the wording.  I also did not mean to imply you should of searched for the answer to your question, I was saying you should do a forum search on wxSmith to find our more about it.  I guess you just wanted to know if Code::Blocks and wxDevCpp could share compilers, if that was it Thomas answered your question.
