Title: No "filemanager" window within CodeBlocks?
Post by: oliver1974 on November 17, 2007, 12:33:06 am

I'm new to CodeBlocks and I don't understand the "management" window.. yet.

I'm only able to see resources like wxWidgets  - Forms an dialogs.. but how can I see all
the .c or .cpp files which belong to a project (something like the "files" window in Netbeans.. or
Eclipse).

The "open files" window isn't the same....

There has to be something.. but I'm obviously too blind to find it...

EDIT: Hmm, strange.. After tinkering around with the "Project->Add files" menu item, a whole bunch of new
folders appeared under the project node in the management window.. like "sources, headers, others.."

Nice, but I don't get why?

In the manager you have at least two tabs: "Projects" (here are youre files), "Symbols" (that is where youre wxSmith stuff is) and (if it's not free floating or docked) the "Symbol browser".
If you cannot see them all, the manager is just to small.
You can drag the border between editor and manager with the mouse to resize it, or you click on the little triangle right next to the visible tabs(s) to move to the hidden one (or two).

Well, thanks alot for that info..

And thanks for the debian nightly builds, great! I just installed the packages
on my "Sidux" - box (Sidux is based on debian unstable.. but I'm quite sure you know this. :-)  )
but I'm still fighting with the wxWidgets stuff (where are the libs? I keep getting

/usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/platform.h|196|error: wx/setup.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden| (File not found)

which looks like a broken wxWidgets environment for me... (but this doesn't belong in this thread, I know..)

Hello oliver,

I always get the same problem, so I gave up and now I'm going to work with makefiles...

To compile wxWidgets, I've used MSYS and:

Code

./configure --prefix=/c/wx --disable-debug --enable-shared --disable-unicode
make
make install

And then:

Code

main: main.o
		g++ -o main.exe frmMain.o main.o `/c/wx/bin/wx-config --libs`
main.o: main.h main.cpp frmMain.o
		g++ -c main.h main.cpp `/c/wx/bin/wx-config --cxxflags`
frmMain.o: frmMain.h frmMain.cpp 
		g++ -c frmMain.h frmMain.cpp `/c/wx/bin/wx-config --cxxflags`

For me, wxWidgets + C::B doesn't exist, C::B doesn't support wx...

C::B doesn't support MSYS compiled wx as of date. If you use normal Windows command line to compile wx, C::B can support that.

I have tons os topics, I've annoyed you enought...
I know C::B don't support MSYS WX...

But It always says can't find Release configuration, or can't find setup.h, or can't find -lwx_core, or can't find -lwx28 whatever...
For me it doesn't work.

Also, THE OP IS USING LINUX.

Don't need to f-around with MSYS.

oliver: Check your installed wxWidgets.

I use C::B + wxWidgets on Linux and Windows (W2K and XP Professional) without any problems.
I have compiled wxWidgets (at the moment 2.8.6) on Windows from windows commandline with MingW32 (actually 4.2).
