A "file does not exist" message appears for both Windows download link, which is surely because the anouncement message was posted before the file was uploaded. So yes, I know, try again in a few minutes. But this is a recurring situation that begs the question: why do these anouncements seem to be routinely posted before all files are actually in place?  :?

should be fixed, typo in the announcement

typo in the announcement

Ah, that's what it was. I didn't expect the link to work at all for a file that does not exist. Interestingly (well, to me) this link:

http://prdownload.berlios.de/codeblocks/does_not_exist.junk

...shows an apparently ready download page, but this one:

http://prdownload.berlios.de/does_not_exist.junk

...shows what I expected: an error page. Ok, now I know.

I am getting some error on startup:

How do I get these plugins?  I am attempting to upgrade from revision 2610.  I have gdb & gcc on my system.  I may be missing other, but they are not being loaded because I am not using them.  Previous version of these zip files had an '_' in them.

Thank you.

This cause by some old files in the share folder that needs deleted; I am not sure exactly what the names are.
src\devel\share\CodeBlocks\plugins
src\output\share\CodeBlocks\plugins

I have these files debugger.dll, compiler.dll, classwizard.dll, scriptedwizard.dll. I would try changes the extension of the files with names like the resource not found other than the ones I listed above and see if that fixes the problem. (use .save as my extension of choice)

Found the names of DLLs needing deleted.

Just delete them and move on.
... compilergcc.dll, ... debuggergdb.dll, ... pluginwizard.dll, ... wizard.dll

That fixed the problem.  I copied the my older directory to "install" the newer version without destorying my older one.  Is there some files I could just copy instead to keep my setting and avoid this problem in the future?  In other words, I would install to a completely new directory, and then copy some files to keep some setting information.

Also, is there a way to view the tips that pop up in the lower right corner (yellow box)?  I like the idea, but sometimes I doon't get to read all the tips.  What's new in the global variables.  I didn't get to read it.

I got it running without any errors.  I just wanted to say...AWESOME job!  I love the latest version!  I found out you can drag the tabs around.  For example, if you on a cpp file, and then open a few more files.  After those action, you open the header file to the first.  I found out you can drag the tab of the header file to be next cpp file!

   WxSmith is awesome too.  I love it.  Great work.

Still to questions (not really problems though):

• is there a way to view the tips that pop up in the lower right corner (yellow box) after they disappear?
  
• 
  Is there some files I could just copy instead to keep my settings and avoid this problem in the future by not copping the whole directory?
  

Thank you.

Code::Blocks settings are saved by default in a file named "default.conf" in a system-specific folder. Under Windows XP, this will be Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\codeblocks. No settings should be saved in the directory containing your C::B installation; therefore, you may safely delete old builds and copy new builds to an empty folder.

Tab dragging is good but it should have better drop hints where the moving tab will be placed like the Firefox purple arrow.

Code::Blocks needs to check the time on all the lib files and rebuild the EXE if any lib is newer. It is difficult to build an app and a library together because I must manually delete the executable each time I rebuild the library.

"Compile current file" should always compile without checking times. Change the description to "Build file" or "Build Current File" if you want to check times.

To get around this in the meantime, add the library files as external dependency files for the targets in the project's properties.

I'd like to add that "Compile current file" also should compile the file if I deactivate compilation in it's properties to keep it out of the usual project compilation process.
