Anyone able to build on windows ??

After deleting objects dir and pch's manually or Rebuild workspace I can't build CB, always fails on CC plug-in.
Always getting undefined references in OnEditorActivated for the IsLoadingProject, etc... lines in the beginning of the method.
My brain seems to be tired and I am surely overlooking what to do.
So if you can help me, please do ;-)

Thomas had the same issue - unfortunately I don't know whether and how he resolved that. You might want to PM him...?!

(Not very helpful, but: It works for me.)

I thought of making this exact post, but I decided I'd wait for the source tree to settle before I did.

the DON helped me out :

delete devel/libcodeblocks.a and devel/codeblocks.dll and build again (don't REbuild, just build)
libcodeblocks.a is not generated due to some bug and it's using the old version

it's auto prefix/suffix thing issue, rather new issue I think, introduced last week ??

No it wasn't introduced last week. This issue is quite old. My guess it dates back to the revision where "Tabs" were brought back.

I noticed this problem and then changed the XRC files to set the prefix/suffix generation to platform default.

The bug is at line 421-438 of sdk/compilercommandgenerator.cpp file.

If output prefix/suffix generation is set to user defined, then Import library name of foo.dll will become foo.dll

This somehow works with GCC, but other compilers overwrites the DLL file.

FYI:

Possible patch for issue, the problem started with SVN 4003
