Help / Re: wxSmith has a blackout!
« Last post by christo on Today at 03:58:44 am »
Please see the steps I use to build on my ubuntu 24.04, hope this is helpful for you

Code
#wxWidgets install
sudo apt install libwxgtk3.2-dev

#Alternatively wxWidgets build from source
git clone https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets.git
cd wxWidgets
git checkout v3.3.3
git submodule update --init
mkdir build-v3.3.3/
cd build-v3.3.3/
CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-15.2.0 CPP=/usr/local/bin/cpp-15.2.0 CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++-15.2.0 ../configure --enable-xrc --enable-monolithic --enable-debug --enable-stc --enable-webview
make -j$(( $(nproc) - 1 ))
sudo make install

#install deps
sudo apt install libtool cmake

#Build C::B
cd ~/codeblocks-code
ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal" ./bootstrap #ACLOCAL_FLAGS required only when installed wxwidgets from source
./configure --with-contrib-plugins=all --prefix=/opt/codeblocks/
make -j$(( $(nproc) - 1 )) install -k

Hi Danois, could you please check if AppImage detailed in https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,26313.msg178904.html#msg178904 works?

I have tested the AppImage, and the issues I have mentioned in this topic are not present with the AppImage version. I have also been looking at the "real" build guide and I'm goint to try to build C::B from sources and see how it goes. If the build succeeds, I'm using that and if not I'll use the AppImage.

Thanks so far! :-)

Applied in r14038, thanks.

I have added also silent.png with the different resolutions needed for wxWidgets 3.0.

Help / wxSmith has a blackout!
« Last post by Danois on September 19, 2026, 08:15:45 pm »
I am using C::B 25.03 from Kubuntu 26.04 (Wayland) repos. The first issue I had was the startup hanging which I temporarily fixed by renaming the wxSmith related zip's in "/usr/share/codeblocks". Since I have built Gdk-Pixbuf to version 2.42.12 and stored the libraries in "~/.local/lib" and used LD_LIBRARY_PATH to enable C::B to find those libraries. Now C::B starts as expected and there are no problems / errors when loading a wxSmith resources in the IDE, so I assume that wxSmith is (technically) working as it should. The issue is that whenever I load a resource, the wxFrame is displayed correctly for a brief moment whereafter the entire wxSmith area in the IDE goes black and stays like that.

Does anyone know a fix for this issue?

I have been looking at this build guide for building the entire C::B IDE from sources, but that looks.. Eherm.. Less palatable...... ;-)

CodeBlocks configure make build under Msys2 using svn repo

Under Msys2 MinGW, I would try building using the configure/make method.
Link to patch to help build using that method https://github.com/stahta01/MINGW-packages/blob/codeblocks-git/mingw-w64-codeblocks/003-fix-link-to-tinyxml.patch

Configure options that are likely needed
Code

Using Code::Blocks / Re: Perfomance question: CodeBlocks "normal" RAM usage and file closing delay
« Last post by SmithJoe on September 19, 2026, 01:54:11 pm »
That sounds like a genuine resource issue, especially with only 8 GB of RAM. The 4 GB usage and long freezes would make me check plugins/code completion first, and possibly compare with 20.03 again to see if the problem is specific to 25.03.
