User forums > Nightly builds

The 06 September 2007 build (4429) is out.

Yes, I did of course try the 'view' toolbars option.  Repeatedly.

There is a space for the missing toolbars, but they just aren't there.

For example, if I turn off all the toolbars, then the toolbar area disapears, just like it's supposed to.

If I then turn on either the compiler or debugger toolbar, then the toolbar area appears, but the selected toolbar itself is not there.

I can click along the entire toolbar area and nothing happens.  (ie: it doesn't try to compile my project.)

And this isn't a problem due to my using some old version or any such issue.  I did a fresh install of XP recently and this is the first time I've installed CodeBlocks on this fresh xp installation.

On a hunch I went through the nightly builds until I found one that used the older wxwidgets.

Guess what...

2007-04-24 b3885 has the toolbars.  It uses v2.6 wxwidget.

2007-04-25 b3888 does not have the toolbars.  It uses v2.8

Now I have no idea whether the dsiappearance of the toolbars is related to the change in the widgets or some other change.

All I do know is that b3885 has them and the others don't.

Nothing I do can make the compiler or debugger toolbar show up.


I do notice one other difference, though.  b3885 has the code completion toolbar enabled where as b3885 & today's does not.

I probably turned off the code completion stuff when I installed today's version.  I don't like it or use it.

Perhaps b3885 w/v2.6 isn't noticing that, and therefor showing it anyway.

Or maybe it really is enabled by default in that version but not in the current version.

I don't know.  I'm just trying to give you additional information in case it helps.

Maybe v2.6 & v2.8 wxwidgets use different registry settings and that's why one works and the other doesn't?

Are there any registry settings I should try deleting to give CodeBlocks a completely fresh start?  Just in case some registry setting is damaged and confusing the current verison of codeblocks / wxwidget?


If settings are done in the registry, and this does turn out to be the problem, then perhaps there needs to be a command to do a complete refresh of default settings?

I don't know... As I said, I'm just trying to give you information and ideas.

TDragon:
C::B no longer uses the registry to store settings. Find the file "default.conf", usually in Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\codeblocks, rename it (or delete it), and run Code::Blocks. This will have the effect of completely resetting everything, including the layout, and should cause the toolbars to reappear.

Xaviou:
Ubuntu 6.10 & 7.04 Amd64 tar.gz archive (containing '.deb' installers builds with wx284) can be found here.

I also just got back into C::B this past month from a hiatus and had the same toolbar issue.  On the nightly all i had to do was  'view->toolbars' and on building SVN myself I had to update from wx2.6.3 to  2.8.4 which is what I'm under the impression all the Devs are using to build recent C::B versions.

Not sure about deleting settings as I always delete those anyways before trying a new svn or nightly just to ensure no incompatibilities.

Which wx version are you using?
