Title: Can't read API docs
Post by: beldaz on December 10, 2011, 03:35:12 am

I just downloaded codeblocks_sdk_doc_r7059.chm from BerliOS, but all paged give the error "Navigation to the webpage was canceled"(sic). Am I the only one with this problem? - I'm using Windowx XP Professional FWIW. I ended up recompiling with the Doxygen file on SVN to generate the documentation as  regular HTML locally.

Newer versions of windows (also recent xp's) do not allow to acces compiled html by default.

Right click on the file in the explorer and chose properties.
There is a setting, that allows the chm to be opened, don't know how it is called at the moment (no windows xp available at home, just linux).

As with all downloaded CHM files Windows blocks the access to such files by default as they might contain active content. You have to right-click on the file, select "properties" and set to explicitly trust the file. Then it will work.

Works a charm, thanks.
