Oh, and I'd just like to say thank you so much for these nightly builds. I thought the project had stalled untill I discovered them. Must say I'm impressed with the update rate. Very Happy

As they in say politics (and maybe web pages), perception is all.
That date sticking out there sure looks like it applies to the whole paragraph.
I've been wondering why so many noobs would pick an old RC2 over a nightly build. The answer to myself was not charitable. But now I'm thinking otherwise. They inadvertently may have been given a wrong impression.
How about taking "Latest" off Official Release, making it a subscripted note at the bottom. Then place the "Latest" Nightly Build notice above it with a word like "Strongly suggested" or some such.
Szabadember:
This nightly is *unusable*! It can't decode my ASCII cpp files correctly (i only see blocks )
Reverting to yesterday's build...
the problem occurs only in my CPP files, C, H files are not affected, AND ONLY if i open a project if i open a CPP file as a single file, everything is ok, if opening a project with cpp files, it won't decode it correctly, strange :|
Another strange thing: in the file properties in CodebLocks, the number of lines is displayed corectly, but the file is displayed as a 2 line file consisting of inly [] like characters
killerbot:
I can confirm this, probably you have some special characters in your file.
@Yiannis : in windows (Xp) : open up the Cb project and open the tinyxml sources --> tinystr.cpp will show some of those strange blocks (not all, I have another project with the latest sources from TinyXml and then the entire file is blocks ...)
[EDIT] the amount and the kind of strange characters is not deterministic, tryingdifferent times -> more or less and other weird characters
Encryptor:
The first time when I tried Code::Blocks I too thought the project was dead. And indeed, it's because of that last release date. Fortunately, a user on another forum posted that nightly builds are still developed. People like me don't rush to check the nightly builds, mainly because I want to use software that is at least declared to be stable. Development versions are not something appealing to try, if the software is new to you ;)
jarro_2783:
I pretty much thought the same thing until I posted a problem on the forum and someone told me that the nightly builds were actually very good. I think it's that date sitting above the "nightly builds are available..." think, it stands out too much.
