General instructions

The build requirements in the specfile and the source RPM are set to a minimum because there are two different names of the wxGTK packages (wxGTK and wxGTK2). So it isn't checked whether wxGTK is installed or not. So you have to take a look at it yourself.

This has to be installed:

  1. wxGTK and its devel package
  2. wxGTK-xrc and its devel package (in some distributions included in the packages of point 1)

Compiling the Release Candidate 2

1. Download the source RPM from www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml

2. Build the binary package as root

rpmbuild --rebuild codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm

3. The binary RPM should be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS

Compiling the CVS version

1. You need a fresh CVS version, no ./bootstrap or anything else should be done before in this directory !

2. add the directory codeblocks to an tar.gz archive named codeblocks-1.0-cvs.tar.gz

tar -czf codeblocks-1.0-cvs.tar.gz codeblocks

3. copy the archive in the directory /usr/src/packages/SOURCES and the Specfile to /usr/src/packages/SPECS/codeblocks.spec

4. build the binary package as root with

rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/packages/SPECS/codeblocks.spec

5. the package will be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS/

6. Install it and enjoy !

%description
Code::Blocks is a free C++ IDE built specifically to meet the most demanding needs of its users. It was designed, right from the  start, to be extensible and configurable.
Built around a plugin framework, Code::Blocks can be extended with plugin DLLs. It includes a plugin wizard so you can compile your  own plugins!

Features:

       Highlights:

           * Open Source! GPL2, no hidden costs.
           * Cross-platform. Runs on Linux or Windows (uses wxWidgets).
           * Made in GNU C++. No interpreted languages or proprietary libs needed.
           * Comes in two presentations: Standalone, and MinGW bundle
           * Devpack support (optional)
           * Extensible thru plugins (SDK available in the downloads section)

       Compiler-related features:

           * Multiple compiler support:
                 o GCC (MingW / Linux GCC)
                 o MSVC++
                 o Digital Mars
                 o Borland C++ 5.5
                 o Open Watcom
           * Compiles directly or with makefiles
           * Predefined project templates
           * Custom template support
           * Uses XML format for project files.
           * Multi-target projects
           * Workspaces support
           * Imports MSVC projects and workspaces
                (NOTE: assembly code and inter-project dependencies not supported yet)
           * Imports Dev-C++ projects
           * Integrates with GDB for debugging

       Interface Features:

           * Syntax highlighting, customizable and extensible
           * Code folding for C++ and XML files.
           * Tabbed interface
           * Code completion plugin
           * Class Browser
           * Smart indent
           * One-key swap between .h and .c/.cpp files
