Title: Code::blocks 8.02 and Environment variables
Post by: kecho on March 18, 2008, 03:13:15 pm
I was using a build (SVN 4164) prior to the new release of code::blocks 8.02. This one had a bunch of nice plugins, one in particular called Environment Variables. This one sets up an environment variable within code::blocks scope, something that is extremely useful for me. With the new version this is all gone!!!!

I would like to know where can I get this plugin...or is it such an important feature that it is already integrated into the program and is no longer a plugin?? somebody please help ):


PS: this plugin is not forward compatible so I cant export it and import it in code::blocks...

It *is* part of this release. Please verify you have activated this plugin during installation and/or install the "full" version of C::B. Next time you better look first.

Huh? This plugin *is* forward compatible. If you use e.g. cb_share_config to share it's settings.

BTW: It would have been extremely useful to know about what platform you are talking about.

Seems like we have to write a manual for the installer... Unbelievable... :roll:

I guess I made myself look like a stupid. I have tons of windows open at the same time and multi task a lot so I barely read instructions when dealing with installers :P...sorry about that, this post is embarrassing...
reinstalled it and c::b 8.02 rocks my socks. I deserve a smack in the head...
