How to install a downloaded DevPak

(1/2) > >>

HeReSY:
Hi,

i've downloaded different devpaks, to use it with the dev-cpp environment. Now i want to use it with c::b.
But how can i install the downloaded devpaks with c::b. The plugin works fine, when i want to download first and then install the devpaks.
I tried to put the devpaks i downloaded in the packeges dir, but the plugin didn't show these devpaks. so how can i install these devpaks, or where do i put the devpaks so the plugin can find it.

This plugin, currently, only supports installing downloaded packages. It doesn't support installing packages from the filesystem.
You can try though to put the package you downloaded in the [devpak_folder]/Packages. [devpak_folder] is the folder you select with "Settings->Plugins->Dev-C++ DevPak updater/installer". After you 've put the file there, re-launch the plugin and right-click on the devpak. It might save you the trouble and display the "Install" entry ;)

Anyway, could you submit a feature request to allow installing devpaks from the filesystem? It would be a nice addition...

HeReSY:
That's what i did, but the downloaded devpaks are not there for the plugin. so i can't install them.
where can i send a feature request?

It's on the main site, at the nav bar.
Anyway, send it here.

The devpaks are just .tar files with the h files and .a files.

put the h files with your headers, put the .a files with your libs.
