First, I got Version 1.0 revision 1562 (gcc 3.4.4 Windows/ANSI, build: Dec 19 2005 10:02:12) up, running, and compiling using global variables. I must say. Global variables rock! I love them already. I have a question about the gcc variable. I am using the version of MingW shipped with RC 2. What woudl I do for the includ & lib directories.
Is there a quicker way to convert older projects to use global variables?
Thank you. Keep up the great work. CB keeps getting better every day.

I think I remember them being (I use standalone MinGW so it's different for me now):
C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\include
C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\lib

It's not too often you can say that and mean it so literally, huh? :lol:

You want to set $(#gcc) to the Code::Blocks directory in this case, as this is the root dir for MinGW at the same time and contains the directories lib and include.
Note that you can set $(#gcc.include) and $(#gcc.lib), but these default to $(#gcc)/include and $(#gcc)/lib, which is usually good. Most people, although they can, do not need to set these.

Thanks a lot for the help. C::B does seem to get better every day. Keep up the great work.
