The 12.11 RC2 (23 November 2012 build 8598) is out.

[MortenMacFly]

What I'm asking for is to make "o" the default for SDCC object files because "rel" has been totally irrelevant for months.

Done in trunk. I guess nobody of us works with that compiler, so hopefully no other users complain that might still use the version that requires "rel"... we will see...

A very awkward thing just happened to me. I have compiled the latest wxWidgets trunk and tried to compile Code::Blocks 2.9.x workspace with it, and a compilation error appeared that had something to do with KWIC. The error is this

BUT...that is not the purpose I am posting this. There seems to be an issue with tabs too.

See the attached picture to get what I mean...no tabs on top of editor. This is the first time that happens to me :/

NOTE: Do not let exchndl.c confused you about the error message; I just opened it to check the issue with tabs and make my point of not be able to see them on top.

UPDATE: I have compiled the latest C::B repository, svn-8643 (with TDM's GCC 4.7.1-2 and wxMSW-2.8.12 [32-bit on Windows XP]) and the issue remains the same.

The Code::Blocks repository for Ubuntu linux is ppa: https://launchpad.net/~pasgui/+archive/ppa/

I checked into this ppa, and it appears that the most recent build does not contain the SmartIndent* plugins (lost during packaging??).

After discussion with pasgui, the plugins apparently do exist, /usr/lib/codeblocks/plugins, but for some reason have the file extension *.do_not_load.  You can manually rename them, or re-install Code::Blocks.  I found a purge necessary for the re-install to work:

Code Select Expand


sudo apt-get purge codeblocks
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/codeblocks/
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install codeblocks codeblocks-contrib

For other users:
if that happens to you, please try first to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure codeblocks-contrib .

Thanks. Indeed that was the issue; I guess the "Search and Replace [ctrl-H]" in Notepad++ got me used to it

Guys, upon moving buttons from wxBoxSizer1 to wxBoxSizer2 it crashed twice up to now. I will try to reproduce it and write down the steps.

It happened under Windows XP, svn-8587, TDM's GCC 4.7.1-2 [32-bit], wxMSW-2.8.12

This issue remains as of svn-8643. You can clearly see from the attachment that upon moving any item from wxChoiceBook to wxBoxSizer2, it crashed Code::Blocks.

stefanos_: please start a new topic and provide a minimal sample for the wxsmith issue!

Done. I hope I have done it as it should; you may find it here http://forums.next.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,17189.0.html

I had an issue when I upgraded from a previous nightly build (pre-RC) to RC2. The issue was the projects cbp file. The project file had some compiler options in it that were used instead of what was intended. I could not find them bringing up the project properties and build options. I had to manually remove the lines from cbp file.

I am off to bed. I am sorry in advance if this is my error or mentioned before.

Retry, Abort, Fail?_

Would any of the devs like to reveal what step(s) are left before RC2 becomes stable 12.11 (erm, 12.12)?

No pressure; just curious if there is somewhere that would be helpful for me to focus my efforts.

Any news on the project parsing bug where casting a function's return value to (void) breaks the ability to find the function's declaration/implementation (previously mentioned at http://forums.next.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,17070.msg117061.html#msg117061)?  This is one of the only two issues I can think of for Codeblocks.  The other being the performance issues of the auto-completion:  If I've been working in C::B long enough, it gets to the point where every time it tries to suggest an auto-completion, the IDE drops any keystrokes I enter for the next half second or so.  I notice no correlation with this behavior with any lack of free system memory or CPU cycles.  When it gets like this I usually just have to put up with it or re-open the IDE and my project to continue.
