First time to use C::B, do not know much about it.
Code::Blocks | (wx)Dev-C++ |
| multiplatform (Windows, Linux, MacOS) | Windows only |
| in active development | Dev-C++ isn't, but wxDev-C++ is |
| written in C++ | written in Delphi |
| quite stable | always crashes |
| many plugins | not extensible |
| not as simple | simple |
| suitable for bigger projects | not suitable for bigger projects |
| many settings | not many settings |
| many supported libraries | not as many libraries |
| many project templates | just a few |
| can import Dev-C++ projects | can't import C::B projects |
| better editing options | just a colorful notepad |
| a bit less wx controls, but extendable through plugins | many controls included |
| no translations included in package | many (36) included translations |
:) Something to be added?
I'd like to mention that (wx)Dev-C++ is written in Delphi, which means you can't customize it if you don't understand pascal/delphi.

Thanks Dreamy for the answer. It seems that I should select C::B.

What do you mean by this?
wxSmith supports almost all controlls one would need in an application :)

Wrong, C::B is translated, but the translations are managed by separate projects.
Search launchpad if you want some.

Mmm well I've found 65 in wxSmith and 85 in wxDev-C++. But some might be unusable/outdated I agree.
It looked like C::B had much less optically, the wxSmith's component picker is really space-saving. :) I fix it in my first post.

Okey, I meant translations you get in installed package. There should be at least a link where to get some, I can't find it anywhere
in IDE nor on website. For other newcomers, here you can get some and translate what is missing: https://translations.launchpad.net/codeblocks
In wxDev-C++ there are 36 translations included, in C::B zero, that's what I call a minus, you might disagree, it's your opinion and this is mine.
