Ollydbg 04:55, 26 December 2008 (CET)This is a great tutorials about build Code::blocks on windows, But If I only want to compile some plug in, how can I do? Do I need to compile code::blocks binary first? And what is the update.bat file used for? Thanks.
mfhall 18 Jan 2010. I don't get it. This article is supposed to be about installing Code::Blocks from source - but it needs Code::Blocks to do the installation - even though it's not in the list of prerequisites. Have I gone mad, or is this some insane joke? Please, to save others from wasting the time I have (my fault, as I didn't read the article carefully enough before I started) rename this page to Updating, NOT Installing.
