Title: Project files not compatible with windows version
Post by: Houdini on October 24, 2005, 11:39:37 am

Hi
I am using Code::Blocks in Windows and Linux but the project files only work with the version they were created with.

Windows version of project file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE Code::Blocks_project_file>
<Code::Blocks_project_file>
   <FileVersion major="1" minor="1"/>
....

Linux version
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE CodeBlocks_project_file>
<CodeBlocks_project_file>
   <FileVersion major="1" minor="1"/>
....

is it possible to create OS independent project files?
if not, it would be cool if someone could fix that :)

I think you use the cvs version on Linux ande the RC1 on Windows, is that right?
The problem is that in the CVS version the project file is following the XML standard. RC1 didn't followed that standard.
So you could try the CVS version on windows, or wait for RC2 which should be out very soon.

In windows you can download from CVS as well, (using tortoiseCVS). But RC2 is coming up REALLY SOON now.. you better wait for it.
