General (but related to Code::Blocks) / Is there a resume writing service for IT professionals in Canada?

« Last post by albanemartin on Today at 02:36:18 pm »

I had eight years of software development experience and was getting filtered out of Canadian tech roles before any human saw my application because my resume was missing the specific technical keywords and project delivery language that IT resume writing services in Canada know are essential.
Top resume Canada  specializes in tech resume services for Canadian IT professionals and their writers understand the difference between how developers describe their work internally and how Canadian tech hiring managers and ATS systems actually screen for the skills they need.
Their IT professional resume service rebuilt my entire document around technology stack keywords, agile delivery language and measurable system impact which produced four interview requests from Canadian tech companies within two weeks.
Drop below your tech stack and how long you have been job searching in Canada because IT resume writing is one of the most technical and most misunderstood niches in the entire Canadian resume services market.

Help / Building CB : cannot find -lexchndl.dll: No such file or directory

« Last post by charles5577 on Today at 10:22:39 am »

I have been using wxWidgets + CodeBlocks for quite a few years now. Very good IDE. Every year or so I check for updates and reinstall everything including the compiler. Before I used the TDM-GCC compiler but this time I switched to the MSYS2. I downloaded a functional version of CodeBlocks and then tried to build a new version of CodeBlocks using CodeBlocks_wx32_64.cbp. It does not find exchndl.dll.

exchndl.dll exists in "C:\msys64\codeblocks_25.03\src\exchndl\win64\bin"
I tried moving it to "C:\msys64\codeblocks_25.03\src\exchndl\win64\lib" but that did not work.
I tried renaming it to exchndl.dll.a. That did not work.

For the linker, line 150 of CodeBlocks_wx32_64.cbp has "<Add library="exchndl.dll" />" and line 166 has         
"<Add directory="exchndl/win64/lib" />".

I am wondering if the new compiler/linker does not accept a dll as a linkable library.

Can anyone help with this?

Would tickets be moved also?

I'm OK with C++17.

BTW: about the code repo, can we switch to git?

Hi, everyone.

It seems that debugging a 32bit program with 64bit GDB doesn't work on Windows 7, so I create two debugger settings: one for 32bit, the other for 64bit, and I want to set different debugger for each build target(e.g. 32bit target use 32bit GDB, 64bit target use 64bit GDB), but I can't find any settings for this, I know how to change active debugger manually, but how to do this auto when I switch build targets.

I use CodeBlocks DEBUGGER BRANCH rev7790. sportzfy

Sorry for my bad english. Thanks!

Kinda misleading. Would be more accurate to name it "Toolchain's default" rather than "Target's default", because the target is, y'know, Debug/Release.

My current development environment (MinGW8.1) only supports upto C++2a, I can change C::B to C++20 or C++23 but then I will be out of the game for a while...

I think c++17 should be fine for now

Interesting issue. It would be useful if Code::Blocks could automatically switch the debugger based on the selected build target.
