Title: Which is the latest C::B version?
Post by: mraman on November 30, 2009, 09:36:12 am

The download site mentions 8.02 version dated 28-Feb-2008 to be latest.
Hasn't there been any updates to this after that?

thanks
Raman

thanks for the quick reply. I noticed the link and downloaded it and un(7)zipped it, but do not know what to do next.
I see a bunch of .dll's, a few .exe's (that didn't run) and a sub directory full of .zip file, most of which contain an .xml or .xrc files.
Any pointers to what I need to do with this download?

Are these incremental - meaning, if I load (or manage to install) the latest, will it include all of the previous changes as well?

thanks much, and apologise for the questions posed out of ignorance

regards
Raman

See this post (sticky in nightly builds forum) http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,3232.0.html (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,3232.0.html), it's quite simple (on windows).

If you are on linux see the further posts in the actual nightly-builds threads, there are packages for many distros available.

thanks again. I got it ... I downloaded the 3 separate zip file into a single directory, copied the contents in the root directory of the extract into the original installed location of CB. CB started but complained of many unloadable plugins.
I then copied all .dll found in the plugins directory of the new extract to the plugins directory of the original installation. This time CB did not come up, instead displayed a dialog box with ... "codeblocks.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. sorry for the inconvenience."
snippets of the codeblocks.rpt file is copied below.
Did I do something wrong?

thanks again
Raman

I ran CB from the same place where it was extracted and everything works fine, so the original installation now becomes redundant I guess
thanks
