Briedis: /* Adding new Fortran file type */

[[Category:User Documentation]]
Presently Code::Blocks IDE has support not only for C/C++ but for Fortran also. Features of Code::Blocks useful for Fortran:
* Editor with syntax highlighting for fixed and free Fortran source code
* Support for GFortran and PGI Fortran compilers. Other Fortran compilers can be added by users too. “Support for compiler” means: (a) the graphical interface for the options of the compiler and (b) catching of compilation errors and warnings and jumping to the corresponding code line
* During the compilation Code::Blocks cares about the dependencies between Fortran files in the project (it is important when Fortran modules are used)
* Symbol browser with program units and variables defined in Fortran files
* Code-completion
* Call-tips
* and some more.

Most of the functionality useful for Fortran is implemented through FortranProject plugin. More information about the use of Code::Blocks with Fortran can be found here [http://darmar.vgtu.lt/ here].

== Setting up Fortran projects ==
To work with Fortran files, do the following:
Add a (new) file to the project, saved as "your_fortran_file.f". Verify it's recognised as "Fortran Sources" file type. If not verify you have done the steps above correctly. To enable compiling the project which includes Fortran files follow these steps:
* Right click on the project, select "Build options" and make sure you have selected the "GNU G77 compiler" (see steps above).
* Right click on the "your_fortran_file.f" file and select "Properties".

1.) Enable "Compile file" and "Link file".

2.) Under the "Advanced" tab enter "CC" as compiler variable

* Compile the project, it should work by now.

== Troubleshooting ==
For troubleshooting enable the "Full command line" Under menu "Settings" -> "Compiler" -> "Other" tab, "Compiler logging". If you see that still the gcc compiler is invoked, make sure you setup the right compiler in the build options for your project '''AND''' your target (e.g. "default").

== Using gfortran instead of g77 ==
The preceding steps can also be used to set up Code::Blocks to use the GNU gfortran Fortran '95 compiler, albeit with the following changes:

* Setup the compiler as follows:

1.) The "Compiler's installation directory" should point to the location of the root directory of the gfortran installation, for example if gfortran.exe is located in C:\gfortran\bin the path should read "C:\gfortran" (minus quotes).

2.) Under the "Programs" tab, select "gfortran.exe" as both the C compiler and the linker for dynamic libs instead of "g77.exe"

3.) DO NOT add the linker commands as given previously; leave these fields blank.

* Adding new Fortran file type
Proceed as above, but add "*.f95" as a file type instead of "*.f77".

Follow the rest of the steps above and gfortran should work.

== Adding new Fortran file type ==
It makes sense to add a new "Fortran Sources" filetype to have the Fortran source code files being seperated. Steps to do so:
* Goto menu "Project" -> "Project tree" -> "Edit file types categories"
* Click on "Add" to add a new type of files
* Select "Fortran Sources" as group name
* Enter the following in the file-mask (without quotation marks): "*.f;*.f77;*.cmn;*.inc;"
* Click OK to close the dialog.
For your interest: "*.f;*.f77" are normally the default extensions for source code files, "*.cmn" is the extension for Fortran common-blocks and "*.inc" if often used as include file with e.g. variable declarations.

== Setting up Fortran projects ==
To work with Fortran files, do the following:
Add a (new) file to the project, saved as "your_fortran_file.f". Verify it's recognised as "Fortran Sources" file type. If not verify you have done the steps above correctly. To enable compiling the project which includes Fortran files follow these steps:

== Attaching the compiler framework ==
To attach the GNU Fortran 77 Compiler (G77) the following steps are required:
* Make a copy of the GNU GCC compiler as follows:

1.) Goto menu "Settings" -> "Compiler"

2.) Select the "GNU GCC Compiler", click the "Copy Button"

3.) Save the copy e.g. under "GNU G77 Compiler"

* Setup the compiler as follows:

1.) The path etc. should be as of the GCC Compiler. If this has been setup correctly, no changes are required. Otherwise refer to the setup of the GNU GCC compiler.

2.) Change under the "Programs" tab: "C compiler" = "g77.exe", "Linker for dynamic libs": "g77.exe"

3.) If you mix Fortran with C programs then add "-lg2c" in the "Linker" tab (and "-lstdc++" if you have mixed Fortran/C and C++ projects) under "Other linker options".

* Important: Make sure the path environment is setup to really point a path that contains the Fortran compiler suite. C::B with MinGW does '''NOT''' include the Fortran compiler. You may download the compiler under [http://www.mingw.org MinGW webpage]. "gcc-g77-3.4.2-20040916-1.tar.gz" is the name of the package I expect you want.

== Adding new Fortran file type ==
It makes sense to add a new "Fortran Sources" filetype to have the Fortran source code files being seperated. Steps to do so:

Installing a supported compiler

2015-04-04T04:58:27Z

Briedis: /* Windows */

[[Category:User Documentation]]
When you launch Code::Blocks for the first time, it will scan the system for any supported compilers. Once this scan has finished, Code::Blocks will have been correctly configured for any detected compilers. Code::Blocks will also have default configurations even for compilers that were not found.

This article is a guide for obtaining, installing, and configuring the various compilers that Code::Blocks can use.

== Compiler-neutral setup steps ==

Before using a compiler with Code::Blocks you have to install it. The method for installing the compiler depends on the Operating system you're using, the Compiler you intend to use and so on.
If you installed the compiler on its default installation directory, there is nothing more to configure (if the compiler is natively supported by Code::Blocks). Launch Code::Blocks and you're all set :)

* If that is not the case, launch Code::Blocks. If it is the first time you launch it, the compiler auto-detection will be launched.
* If your compiler was not auto-detected, go to "Settings->Compiler and Debugger->Global Compiler settings->Toolchain executables", select the compiler you installed and press "Auto-detect".
* If you get a message saying that the compiler was auto-detected, congratulations!
* If not, then press the button with the three dots next to the "Auto-detect" button and select the installation directory of your compiler manually.

NOTE: ''The compiler's installation directory is exactly this: the installation directory. Not the "bin" subdirectory nor any other.''

== Windows ==

Once you've installed a new compiler, be sure to read the Compiler-neutral setup steps at the end of this article.

At the time of this writing, Code::Blocks supports the following compilers in Windows:

=== MinGW/GCC ===
The official MinGW website is at [http://www.mingw.org mingw.org]. A MinGW-bundled version of the latest Code::Blocks release is available from the [https://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/5#windows Code::Blocks download page]. If you install this version, the GCC compiler will be automatically detected and set as the default. Also you can use the TDM's GCC/mingw32 Builds from [/index.php/topic,10508.0.html] or [http://www.tdragon.net/recentgcc/].

'''Note''': In any case, if you don't install MinGW in C:\MinGW, you'll need to update the configuration of GCC in Code::Blocks.

==== Official MinGW.org ====
You can install '''MinGW''' yourself, by using an automatic downloader/installer or by downloading and unpacking the required packages by hand from [http://www.mingw.org mingw.org], here: [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/].

Packages required (suggested) for MinGW/GCC v3.4.5:
* Compiler:
** gcc-build-3.4.5-20060117-3.tar.gz
** gcc-core-3.4.5-20060117-3.tar.gz
** gcc-g++-3.4.5-20060117-3.tar.gz
* Components:
** binutils-2.19.1-mingw32-bin.tar.gz
** gdb-6.8-mingw-3.tar.bz2
** mingw32-make-3.81-20080326.tar.gz
** mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
** mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dll.tar.gz
** w32api-3.13-mingw32-dev.tar.gz

Packages required (suggested) for MinGW/GCC v4.4.0:
* Compiler:
** gcc-full-4.4.0-mingw32-bin-2.tar.lzma
* Components:
** binutils-2.19.1-mingw32-bin.tar.gz
** gdb-6.8-mingw-3.tar.bz2
** mingw32-make-3.81-20080326.tar.gz
** mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
** mingwrt-3.16-mingw32-dll.tar.gz
** w32api-3.13-mingw32-dev.tar.gz

==== HOWTO: Use Cygwin 1.7 with Code::Blocks ====
Cygwin 1.7 changed the way symlinks were created and handled when invoked from a command prompt. I couldn't find a way to force CB to use a unix-link shell, but was able to find a work around when perusing the Cygwin mailing lists.

The symptom would show up with a message similar to the one below:

Execution of 'g++.exe -Wall -fexceptions -g -c c:/dev/code/cb1/main.cpp -o obj/Debug/main.o' in 'c:\dev\code\cb1' failed.

Executing the same command from the CMD.EXE prompt yields an "Access is denied" message. This was how I was able to track down why the issue occurred. For more info, see this cygwin mailing list thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg104088.html

'''Solution'''

The solution is to point your compiler and linker directly to the version of gcc and g++ that you want to use.

In my case, I wanted to use gcc-4.exe and g++-4.exe and so, I went into Settings->Compiler and Debugger->Toolchain executables. There I changed the "C Complier", "C++ Compiler" and "Linker for dynamic libs" to point to gcc-4.exe, g++-4.exe and g++-4.exe.

After this, compilation and linking worked fine.

It would also be a good idea to add an environment variable CYGWIN with a value of nodosfilewarning in Settings->Environment->Environment Variables. This eliminates the following (harmless) warning message:

MS-DOS style path detected: c:/
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /c
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames

=== Microsoft Visual C++ ===
The official Visual C++ website is at [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualc/default.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualc/default.aspx].

Code::Blocks will work with any edition of Visual C++ since the 2003 edition (MSVC 7.1). The commercial editions of Visual Studio may require additional configuration in Code::Blocks to work correctly. You can also download the most recent "Express" edition of Visual C++ for free from [http://www.microsoft.com/express/vc/ microsoft.com/express/vc]. If you choose an "Express" edition of Visual C++, it is highly recommended that you also install Microsoft's Platform SDK in order to develop programs for Windows.

=== Borland C++ Compiler 5.5 ===
NOTE: ''At some point, you will be asked to register with Borland and fill out a survey. Registration is free.''

Go to [http://www.borland.com/products/downloads/download_cbuilder.html# Borland's downloads] and click on the link labeled "Compiler". After you accept the license agreement, you will be provided with download links to the setup file. (Borland was bought by, and now available at [http://edn.embarcadero.com/article/20633 Embarcadero].)

=== Digital Mars C/C++ Free Compiler ===
Go to [http://www.digitalmars.com/download/dmcpp.html DigitalMars]. Accept the license agreement and you'll be redirected to a page containing download links.

In that page, download:
*The '''Digital Mars C/C++ Compiler''' (<tt>dm8**c.zip</tt>)
*The '''Basic Utilities''' (<tt>bup.zip</tt>)
*The '''STLport''' library (<tt>stlport.zip</tt>)

Open <tt>dm\bin\sc.ini</tt> in a text editor, and replace the line

=== Intel C++ Compiler ===
Please note that on Windows platform, Intel C/C++ compiler requires ''Microsoft Visual C++[http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/offline.aspx]'' to be present in your system in order to function properly. It will not compile any C++ program without it. You should also note that ''Windows SDK[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e6e1c3df-a74f-4207-8586-711ebe331cdc&DisplayLang=en]'' shall be installed in order to compile Windows app.

Code::Blocks (C::B) is now able to detect (from svn revision 4967 onwards) Intel C/C++ compiler and it'll then automatically setup the MSVC compiler so that the Intel compiler works as intended. However if you wish to manually install the Intel C/C++ compiler, then follow the following steps.

* Go to '''Settings > Compilers and debuggers''' and then select '''Intel C/C++ compiler'''.
* Click on the '''Toolchain executables''' tab. Point to the installation directory, e.g. <tt>C:\Program Files\Intel\Compiler\C++\10.1.020\IA32</tt> , inside the ''Compiler's installation directory'' textbox.
* Click on the '''Additional Paths''' tab and fill in the directories pointing to MSVC bin directory and the Windows SDK directory. It may look like-
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\bin
* Click on the '''Search directories''' tab and add the include directories containing headers offered by Intel C/C++ compiler, MSVC compiler and the Windows SDK headers to '''Compiler''' and '''Resource compiler'''. It may look like-
C:\Program Files\Intel\Compiler\C++\10.1.020\IA32\include
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Include
* Click on the '''Linker''' tab under '''Search directories''' tab and add the directories containing libraries offered by Intel C/C++ compiler, MSVC compiler and the Windows SDK. It may look like-
C:\Program Files\Intel\Compiler\C++\10.1.020\IA32\lib
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\lib
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Lib

Click on the '''OK''' button to save the settings. Now you should be able to use Intel C/C++ compilers on Windows with C::B.

Note: The directories specified above may be different on your PC.

=== Digital Mars D Compiler for Windows ===

=== Downloading the GNU GCC compiler & GDB debugger ===

Under Linux you'll, most probably, already have everything that is needed in order to compile. All major Linux distributions (RedHat, Debian, SuSE, Mandriva, Gentoo, ArchLinux, etc) come with GCC & GDB preinstalled. To make sure you have have gcc installed, go to your terminal and type 'gcc -v'. In case you have GCC installed, you will get GCC's compile options and version number.

==Mac OS X==
The Mac OS X port efforts has began recently, but it should be a matter of time until these compilers will be supported:
* [http://gcc.gnu.org/ GNU GCC]
* [http://www.intel.com/cd/software/products/asmo-na/eng/compilers/index.htm Intel Compiler beta (not yet released to public)]
* [http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/ Small Device C Compiler (SDCC)]

=== Downloading the GNU GCC compiler & GDB debugger ===

Under Mac you'll need to install a ''compatible'' version Xcode Tools from http://developer.apple.com/tools/ (or http://developer.apple.com/downloads). You need the "Command Line Tools".

This will install Apple versions of:

http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/

http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/

http://www.gnu.org/software/make/

=== Setting up compiler switches ===

Usually you need to tweak the compiler options to be able to compile C++ applications - that's the stuff Xcode hides from your eyes, but you better should know. You need to point to the GNU compiler's C/C++ include folders, to the GNU linkers libraries folder and a adjust the compiler options to setup the GNU compiler root path. Those path's differ depending on what hardware (processor architecture) and what version of MacOS is used. For an Intel based Mac with MacOS 10.6.2 and Xcode v3.2.2 the following should work:

Compiler search directories ("include" folders):

<code>
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include
</code>

<code>
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
</code>

Linker search directories ("library" folders):

<code>
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/lib
</code>

<code>
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin10/4.2.1
</code>

Additional compiler flags:

<code>
-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 -gdwarf-2
</code>

== Remote Compilation ==
Remote compilation is not directly supported by Code::Blocks, however, the following articles explain two remote compilation systems, which use 3rd party programs to provide this functionality:

[[Installing Uniwin remote compiler]] 
[[Using Xming for remote compilation]]

== Misc. Custom Compilers ==
There are several user contributions for different (non-C/C++) compiler which are listed here:

Announcement for plugins/patches

2010-01-30T14:18:45Z

Briedis: /* Plugin announcements */

=== HowTo announce a new plugin/patch or similar ===

''Please read carefully:''

This WiKi section is to announce:
* a new plugin that is '''not''' within the contrib folder of the SVN repository
* a patch that is '''not''' a bugfix or similar and/or will '''not''' be applied to the SVN repository (e.g. because it's very specific)
* a new lexer/template that is '''not''' completed or approved and/or will '''not''' be added to the SVN

If a plugin/patch/lexer/template is moved to the repository don't forget to remove it from here! This section is intended to '''collect''' the information about available plugins/patches/lexerers/templates in one place. So the announcement should be short and clear. It should (however) include at least the following content:
* Name of the plugin/patch/lexer/template and purpose 
* Version (state) and date of last update (or release in the first place) 
* Link to a thread (to be created) in the developers (plugin) forum for discussion of features, bugs, wishlist etc. 
* A link where the '''most up-to-date''' version can be downloaded (e.g. in the forum). 
The best way may be to copy the section from the '''template''' plugin/patch/lexer/template and update it with your information. This will ensure consistency in the best way! Read the article [[How to add another announcement]] to read how to change the WiKi accordingly.

=== Patch announcements ===

So far there are no new patches.

Code::Blocks Plugins

2010-01-30T13:53:24Z

Briedis:

[[Category: User Documentation]]
== General ==

Code::Blocks' features can be extend by using '''plugins''', most of them listed on this page. There are generally three types of plugins:
# Core plugins - developed and maintained by the core C::B team.
# Contrib plugins - developed and maintained by the community and proven to be very valuable. So they are integrated into the C::B SVN.
# 3rd party plugins - developed and maintained by the community but not (yet?) in the C::B repository. Theses plugins often have their own repository or are being posted (including the source code) in the forums.

If you are looking for plugins:
# Look in the official release. Notice that the installer / package manager might require you to enable some of the plugins specifically. So READ carefully.
# Search the forums for announcements, especially the forums at [/index.php/board,14.0.html].
# There might be information on the WiKi concerning other plugins on this page and '''[[Announcement_for_plugins/patches|here]]'''.

If you are developing plugins:
Surely you can work with plugin as you like, but here are some suggestions:
* Announce them in the plugin development board in the forums - including the (initial) source code at [/index.php/board,14.0.html].

OR

* Setup your own webpage (or use a file sharing platform) and post the link to the sources/binaries/svn access in the plugin development board in the forums at [/index.php/board,14.0.html].

OR

* Setup a repository, probably at BerliOS or SourceForge, post the link to the sources/binaries/svn access in the plugin development board in the forums at [/index.php/board,14.0.html]. Notice: This is very convenient as attachments in our forum might be deleted from time to time. So it is not safe to post source code in the forums.

THEN

# Enter the plugins description on this page.
# Announce the pugin '''[[Announcement_for_plugins/patches|here]]''' using '''[[Template_for_plugin_announcement|this]]''' template.
