Help / Can't build code blocks: Zip file structure invalid
« Last post by MadDavid on July 22, 2026, 10:30:48 pm »
I'm trying to build code::blocks from source to figure out how to fix a bug that prevents LLVM from linking windows executables together.

I built the zip.exe utility from source as well, put a path to it, and tried building the CodeBlocks_wx32_64.cbp

Everything seemed to run well until it got to the post-build steps, at which point it coughs up this error:

What do I do from here?

Help / Re: Trouble opening Code::Blocks on MacOS

That message should be harmless, it only means spell checking will not be available. Does C::B start afterwards?

Help / Trouble opening Code::Blocks on MacOS
« Last post by Martin on July 21, 2026, 04:06:52 pm »
Good day,
I downloaded Code::Blocks for MacOS (current version: Tahoe 26.5.2 ), but when I try to open it, it displays a debug report and a separate warning message,

"One or more plugins were not loaded.
This usually happens when a plugin is built for a different version of the Code::Blocks SDK.
Check the application log for more info.
List of failed plugins:
libSpellChecker.dylib"

I am pretty unfamiliar with MacOS as well as the Code::Blocks environment and I am far from tech savvy. I also tried attaching a screenshot, but I'm not sure how the "Insert Image" button works. My university has made the use of Code::Blocks compulsory for my current module, therefore it is urgent for me to resolve this issue.

Please get back to me as soon as you can. My apologies for any frustrations caused.

Hi.

32 bits version for Windows (and also 64 bits version) can be downloaded from my website.
I made both a wxWidgets-3.2.10 and wxWidgets-3.3.2 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, 24.04 and 26.04 versions can be installed from my ppa (they are available for both amd64 and arm64 architectures).

Regards
Xav'

  • step up to gcc16

We switched to gcc 15.2.0 (on 09 April 2026) --> download the new wx/mingw dll's see link below

Get the compiler we use here : https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/download/15.2.0posix-14.0.0-ucrt-r7/winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-15.2.0-mingw-w64ucrt-14.0.0-r7.7z

Get quick announcements through the RSS feed http://www.codeblocks.org/nightly/CodeBlock_RSS.xml

Before you use a nightly make sure you understand how it works.

    Hello Miguel Gimenez.

    Quote
    ... Relating margin order, I prefer it as is. ...

    • It is not the order but the unwanted firing of folding, that is disturbing.
    • An unwanted folding means always to breakdown the development-flow.
      • Suddenly and unexpected the text-part, you want to edit, is vanishing.
      • Instead of of implementing your idea, you have to unfold again.
      • Than you have to search for the text-position you wanted to work on.
      • Finally, by clicking on it, you risk to fold again.
      • I know nobody who is not frustrated by this.
    • Moving the folding margin to the left and away from the text area prevents this nasty disturbance.

    If you prefer the current margin order but your users not the alternative will be to make the margin order configurable.
    But I fear this will mean much more effort for you.
    Thus, I just ask you to solve the folding issue and changing the margin order is a simple way to fix the issue without disabling the folding completely.     

    Best regards,
                       Eckard Klotz.
