This article describes how to install a nightly build of Code::Blocks.

NOTE: The nightly builds for Mac OS X are not official (just yet)

The packages are currently done infrequently, and not really "nightly".

Install steps

  1. Install the Developer Tools from Apple, if not included with Mac OS X.
    • For Mac OS X 10.3, you need to install Xcode Tools version 1.2 or later
    • For Mac OS X 10.4, you need to install Xcode Tools version 2.2 or later
  2. Download the latest binary ZIP package of Code::Blocks, from BerliOS
    • For Mac OS X 10.1 up to 10.3 (PPC), download the "macppc" version
    • For Mac OS X 10.4 (PowerPC or Intel), download the "macx86" version
  3. Unpack the zip file package, and put CodeBlocks.app where you like it.
    • The suggested install location is under /Developer/Applications.
    • wxWidgets (2.6.3-2, ANSI) is included in the application bundle.
