General (but related to Code::Blocks) / Re: Faild to build C::B with github action with latest wxWidgets 3.3.3

« Last post by Pecan on Today at 06:15:20 pm »

This is a reference to what might be another instance of this problem:

When working on builds for Fedora ([url]https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sharkcz/danny/build/10959184/[/url], details are in the builder-live.log files), I have noticed that libtool version 2.6.2 present in Rawhide fails the build of the codesnippets plugin after the tinyxml LIBADD was removed from its Makefile.am in revision 13996. System tinyxml library is used in the builds. I have confirmed that with libtool downgraded to 2.5.4 the build runs OK. AFAICT other plugins still use the LIBADD mechanism. Likely some change in libtool is causing this ...

Maybe something related to this discussion: [url=https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,26338.msg179012.html#msg179012]Faild to build C::B with github action with latest wxWidgets 3.3.3[/url]

It is also related to the tinyxml library and the linker issue.

I worked all the way back to svn 13733 and found no changes in the Makefile.am file. So it has to be something that wasn't deleted, but needs to be added.

It's suggested to change Makefile.am for codesnippets to:

libcodesnippets_la_SOURCES = codesnippets.cpp \
       codesnippetstreectrl.cpp \
--- a/src/plugins/contrib/envvars/Makefile.am
+++ b/src/plugins/contrib/envvars/Makefile.am
@@ -11,7 +11,8 @@
 libenvvars_la_LDFLAGS = @MODULE_SHARED_LDFLAGS@ -version-info 0:1:0 -no-undefined -avoid-version
 
 libenvvars_la_LIBADD = ../../../sdk/libcodeblocks.la \
-         $(WX_LIBS)

Can anyone tell me what I need to run to test that this would not screw up anything else on linux or windows.

Working all the way back to svn 13733, the Makefile.am for codesnippets plugin has never been changed.
So it's not something in the file that has been deleted.
It must be something that needs to be added.
I'll continue the conversation on forrum at " Faild to build C::B with github action with latest wxWidgets 3.3.3
" which may be the answer.

Most likely my error. I'll do some comparison to see how I erred.
Or maybe you could tell me what it is that I can fix because I'm not very Linux savvy.

Hi.

I am still working on making the Ubuntu-26.04 version (I've made some progress, but there are still problems).

It seems I've found a solution : the last build completed successfully.

Hi Xaviou,

Good job, last "nightly" build version 14003 can be installed with success on Linux Mint 22.3 Zena 64b.

Just to be precise, recently I have must reinstall this OS ... after "bad" operation ... and with CodeBlocks some warning(s) must be signaled

After reinstall, my OS environment is "very clean", but first warning : you must don't install CB proposed by default (very old version 20.03), because
I'm not success to upgrade to version 25.03 ...

I donwload all deb packages of CB version 25.03 from Internet in "one tarball" : codeblocks_25.03_amd64_debian12.tar.xz

After decompress in "special directory" and move it, you can install by : "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"

Last operation : declare your ppa, and update your list of packages :

"sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x-psoud/cbnb
sudo apt update"

Second warning, don't proceed by "sudo apt upgrade" because list of deb package don't change after this command ...

Wait (some seconds!), and last version of nightly build of CB appear in "Update manager" of Linux Mint 22.3, and you can click on this to install it.

Regards.

Hi.

32 bits version for Windows (and also 64 bits version) can be downloaded from my website.
I made both a wxWidgets-3.2.11 and wxWidgets-3.3.3 linked versions

Debian Trixie (64 bits) and Bookworm (32 and 64 bits) can be installed from my repo
The corresponding unsigned deb files can also be downloaded from the website page linked above.

Ubuntu-22.04 and 24.04 versions can be installed from my ppa (they are available for both amd64 and arm64 architectures).

I am still working on making the Ubuntu-26.04 version (I've made some progress, but there are still problems).

Help / Re: Can't build code blocks: Zip file structure invalid

« Last post by stahta01 on September 07, 2026, 08:08:44 pm »

you can download zip.exe into the Msys2 file structure with

pacman -S zip

Note when running this zip version, when zip.exe is in a Codeblocks project file you have to exchange the backslashes (\) with forward slashes (/) in the pathnames of files in the argument lists of the zip.exe command.

You also likely need to fix the wildcard "*" in the zip commands.

wxWidgets Debug Allert
A debugging check in this application has failed.
../../src/common/wincmn.cpp(3370): assert "!wxMouseCapture::IsInCaptureStack(this)" failed in captureMouse(): Recapturing the mouse in the same windows? 

I'm having a problem reproducing this. Can you give us a few steps to cause the problem?
