Title: DevPak support
Post by: Ai Imran on March 29, 2007, 12:17:19 pm
Hi developers,

I am somehow sure I am posting in appropriate forum, if not am sorry please move this thread to the ofrum it fits in.

I wrote down a free GUI building library and have its devpak with 50+ examples, currently dev c++ users can eaily download and/or update it from devpak repository.

My questions:

1. How do I install a devpak in codeblocks ?
2. if I can, then will all of project templates be compatible with code project ?

Am really interested to know, if it is possible, since codeblocks seems much powerful than said IDEs.

regards

1. Code::Blocks' "Contrib" plugins (included with every nightly build) include a DevPak updater/installer plugin. I've never tried it, but I assume it still works... (The last meaningful update to it was October 16.)
2. I'm not certain, but I think the answer is no. Although C::B has an importer for Dev-C++ projects, I don't believe there's a way (yet) to include Dev-C++'s templates in C::B's wizard-based interface.
