Title: unpicking a binary package
Post by: HWJarausch on September 14, 2009, 01:19:37 PM

Hi,

I need a very recent gcc compiler like
ftp://ftp.equation.com/gcc/gcc-4.4.1-32.exe

How can I unpick codeblocks-8.02mingw-setup.exe
replace the compiler and generate it again.

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.

You just install/unpack whatever compiler you want in whatever location (for me, it's in Z:\gcc44, for example). Then you go to your compiler settings and change the installation path under the toolchain tab. Done.

EDIT: And, you can even keep the old one around, it doesn't hurt. Duplicate the compiler profile, and change either of them.

Since I need it for my first-year students, I'd like to generate a simple installer package which
does anything required.

Thanks,
Helmut.

I am guessing that the Installer code is here
