Some things have changed in CVS:
- Code::Blocks is now using the GNU build system (autoconf/automake), at least for non-windows platforms :D
- All provided makefiles are now gone :shock:
- Many doc files have been moved from src/ to the top-level folder (COPYING, AUTHORS, etc)
Well, how does Code::Blocks build now?
I will update the relevant README files but until I do, here goes:
Windows
Download latest stable Code::Blocks if you don't already have it (shame on you!)
Open with it the CodeBlocks.cbp (wx2.4) or CodeBlocks.wx2.6.cbp (wx2.6) project file, edit the project's custom variables (to point to your wx installation) and build it.
Unix
The very first time you unpack the source (or checkout from CVS), you need to run ./bootstrap. This will create a sane building environment.
Then just do the usual stuff:
mkdir -p build/release
cd build/release
../../configure
make
sudo make install
or
mkdir -p build/debug
cd build/debug
../../configure --enable-debug
make
sudo make install
Use 'configure --help' to see what things you can enable/disable.
With that said, it works for me but I 'd like to know if people are having problems with it.
running ./bootstrap:
aclocal:configure.in:147: warning: macro `AM_PATH_WXCONFIG' not found in library
configure.in:147: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_WXCONFIG
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
root:/usr/src/codeblocks# wx-config --prefix
/opt/wx/2.6
#echo `wx-config --prefix`/share/aclocal >> `aclocal --print-ac-dir`/dirlist
which creates on my system:

cd . && \

the Makefile in codeblocks/src/sdk/resources should probably use
mv -f
for after it zips the manager_resources (my $srcdir = .)
This part is failing now (same problem):
resources.zip:
cd $(top_srcdir)/src/src/resources && \
zip resources.zip *.xrc images/*.png images/16x16/*.png > /dev/
null
mv -f $(top_srcdir)/src/src/resources/resources.zip .
start_here.zip:
cd $(top_srcdir)/src/src/resources/start_here && \
zip start_here.zip *.htm* *.jpg > /dev/null
mv -f $(top_srcdir)/src/src/resources/start_here/start_here.zip .
I had to change those mv commands to mv -f
to get it to work.
I think this applies to all the resources directories (src/plugins/astyle/resources is the same).
(you're doing mkdir build; cd build; ../configure. I'm calling configure from the codeblocks directory...)
Edit: changing mv to mv -f doesn't actually work (same error). It was just not giving an error again since I was fixing the Makefiles as they failed and then running make again (which just reported nothing to do for that directory...)
I get the same thing. BT

If those ;; semicolons are removed it doesn't error out there, but the if branches above don't work somehow (it doesn't include the libs it was looking for - Library requirements (gtkglextmm-1.0 libglademm-2.0) not met;). Not sure why configure seems to be broken (syntax errors :/ ). I am compiling against wx ansi debug if that makes a difference.
Edit: went back and set wx-config back to the non-debug version of wx, reran bootstrap and configure (no flags this time) and same error msg. configure worked yesterday with the same settings :(
looking at cvs it looks like it happens here:
checking for dlopen in -ldl... yes
checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes
checking for snprintf... yes
checking for vsnprintf... yes

tested configure and make (--enable-debug) without error. make install failed (in place make):

So it puts start_here.zip in the start_here/ subdirectory but then tries to install start here from the resources (parent) directory - instead of first changing to resources/start_here...
