hi i'm interested in developing plugins. are there any tutorials on doing this? good documentation?

raph:
Have a look at the wiki and get the SDK Documentation.
This will help you start. If you have further questions, ask in the forum.

thomas:
It's almost too easy to require documentation :)

First, you will need the SDK headers and libraries and everything, the easiest way to get that is to check out the Code::Blocks sources and compile them. Then set your #cb variable to where the sources are.

Next, there is a wizard. Use it, fill in a few things like your plugin's name.

That's almost everything already! Now just add/override some virtual functions, and add any code that you would like to run. Any object/function inside Code::Blocks is accessible, as plugins run in the same address space.

Finally, add a nice image/icon, and such, and pack it into a .zip file. Adjust the manifest file so the file names match, if need be.

OH!!
even  though a lot of that would be a first for me, that sounds terribly easy. i'll have to give that a try!!

laserbeak43:
both sdk chm files don't work. "This program cannot display the webpage"
i'll download the sources when i get back later.
