Revision as of 03:51, 10 February 2010

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

NOTE: If you have installed Code::Blocks RC1, RC1-1, or RC2; please either uninstall it or make sure you use a different directory. Do not install the nightly build on top of these release candidates.

Install steps

  1. Install MinGW and the GDB debugger.
  2. Download and install 7-Zip. You need it to extract the nightly build.
  3. Download the latest nightly build from the [/index.php?board=20.0 Nightly Builds forum].
  4. Download the according wxWidgets Unicode DLL for your nightly build (download link in forum).
  5. Download the mingw10.dll for Code::Blocks mingwm10.7z (also mentioned at the nightly build).
    • This step is optional if the bin directory of MinGW is in your PATH variable or if you copy mingw10.dll from …\"MinGW"\bin directory to your unzip-directory of Code::Blocks an wxWidgets DLL.
  6. Unzip Code::Blocks and the wxWidgets DLL to the same directory.
  7. Start Code::Blocks and configure GNU GCC compiler.
