Hi, I wanted to set global compiler policies (debug & release), but the dropdown list is empty and disabled. The settings are being applied fine, just cannot find a way to set different policies.
I'm using CB 8.0.2 standalone and MinGW 5.1.4 files. I remember the policies were available when I used a CB-MinGW bungle a while ago, so I'm probably just missing something.
Can you please be so kind to hint me on this?
Please be more specific.
What options do you want to set where ?
Which dropdown lists are empty and disabled ?
I just want to set separate policies for debug [-g] and release [-s] targets for g++.
The dropdown Policy in Settings > Compiler and debugger > Global compiler settings is empty and disabled.
It had Debug and Release profiles in the CB+MinGW combo version, but not in the CB standalone.
Please pardon if that wasn't clear from the beginning, I'm up for too long, and thought it was.

I think you mixed this up with the project settings.
There you can have different build-targets for debug and release or whatever you want.
But in the dropdown-lists for the policy are disabled in global compiler settings, because they do not make sense there, and that did not change since 8.02-release.
By the way the dropdown-list only changes the order of the applied option-sets (global project options and target options) and which option-set (global or target) should be applied at all.
I just thought — since the dropdown is there — you can manage global (per compiler) target policies, and switch between local & global ones.
Not that it's vital, just thought it's broken (and imagined it was working in the other release).
Thank you for your time, jens, have a good day.
