compile C::B with msvc
XayC:
It doesn't matter, and indeed it's your opinion, but I don't see why having a msvc build option makes sense if you use wxWidgets mainly on Windows and doesn't make sense if you use C:B mainly on windows. If you plan to use C:B on Windows only, to me makes sense having a msvc build option (personally though I don't need it at all, I prefer mingw).
Probably it would have been better to say, when answering to rekisum's question, that currently C:B doesn't have any msvc build option, because nobody needed it so far (and probably it's not even easy to do), instead of a "no, it doesn't make sense".

Biplab:
I had once tried to compile C::B with MSVC 2005. I was using Bakefile to generate makefile and then compile using it.
But it throws some error while compiling and I couldn't succeed. I don't remember the exact error as I tried it long ago. I have a partial bakefile with which you can start if you are interested. :)

Hello biblap,
thanks for the bakefile.
But as msvc is not supported at all I maybe install mingw again.
Or I wait untill martind's OpenOCD plugin is available in the nightlys ;-)
At home I try to switch to Linux anyway but at work I need to use XP.

I am trying an Second Time to Build Code::Blocks using MSVC.
I am using MSVC9/2008 this time.
Currently have errors compiling wxscintilla DLL.
Does anyone know which wxscintilla version is closest to the one used in Code::Blocks.
