Good day to you.
I'm trying to develop a simple plugin (HelloWorld) for Code::Blocks on Windows Vista,
to better understand how it works.
Sadly, it needs include files that Code::Blocks doesn't possess. I'm using the bundled version with MinGW.
Mainly logmanager.h, sdk.h and configurationpanel.h .
After some research, I found out that it needs some files from codeblocks-devel, but they are only
available for Linux.
Is there an equivalent "codeblocks-devel" for Windows or is it necessary to develop a plugin on Linux?
What must I do?
Thanks for your attention.

There's an article (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Creating_a_simple_%22Hello_World%22_plugin) in the CB Wiki that explains the basics of plug-in development.
Those file are part of the Code::Blocks SDK (which is also part of the program sources). So you have to download the sources, either from the download page or using SVN. As mentioned in the article you'll also need the wxWidgets sources.
