Code::Blocks and MinGW

raph:
It looks in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for a key starting with "Minimalist GNU for Windows" and reads the value of "InstallLocation".

connexion2000:
Now it is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall with a key "MinGW"

dje:
An improvement could be to look in directories pointed by the PATH environment variable (at least on Windows) for the standard MinGW binaries.
I guess there must be equivalent on other OSs.
