Cod::Blocks

I don't know if any body has already heard but there is a new release of Code::Block's ( http://www.codeblocks.org/ ) for all the main platforms.

Edit: Oops the title should have said Code::Blocks

code::blocks 8.02 ???

i downloaded alway nightly-builds and used this... i love this editor

It uses Ubuntu versioning scheme which use "year.month" as version number, nice compiler though, I can't actually use VCToolKit 2003 well so I simply stick to VC++2008 Express.

Overall it's still worth looking.

nightly-builds are no official releases. Its like a daily beta. :)

Now the 8.02 is the new official version.

Call me crazy, but I thought Code::Block was quite slow on load up for me, I actually still prefer Dev-C++ by Bloodshed. I know its buggy, and it is discontinued, but it still pretty good I think :-)

I used DevC++ in the past, and god I couldn't stand it anymore. Code::Blocks looked good last time I had a look, but quite frankly it's hard to beat VisualStudio.

Codeblocks seems like a nice IDE, i wish someone could hack it around for BMax. I would do it myself if i knew where to start.

Code Blocks was cool until Visual Studio Express appeared. Unless you use MingW, anything else than VC++ / VC# is just a (normally bad) attempt to replicate it.
Its still the more or less most powerfull integrated IDE for C++ on the Windows Platform, as the XCode editor on the Apple platform.

and for MingW, I actually would use Eclipse C++ instead of Code Blocks ...

Code::Blocks is not a compiler.

Just a typo and I haven't look back the topic, it's an IDE.

I just want to say it doesn't work with VCTK2003 very well btw, which is my favorite compiler.

I dub thee Sir Insano- rise before your brethren now, a new man! I prefer MinGW on Windows, but only because I can get it on a computer way faster than most other compilers. In addition to that, I maintain some degree of compatibility with the GNU Linux toolchain, which is very important right now.

I'll consider using MinGW on your suggestion, thanks.

I've about 5 projects still using VCTK2003, which I write makefile and compile them in command lines( since I have not very well experience with C::B). I can't change them soon as they're custom program I wrote for my studio customers...., each bring me hundreds of money bimonthly, I live with them and I just want to break them if they're working well.

I haven't touch linux for a while, if I have time I'll install it on my notebook and test it, I just have no need for that yet soon.

I want hundreds of money.

Unless you have a good reason to change a working setup, don't. Just saying, I prefer MinGW- I don't want to get pinned for your entire system blowing up.

The money is what supporting my interest on coding coz my wife doesn't allow me to use salary on this purpose...

I can get spare notebook to test these stuff incase any problem or data loss etc, thanks for advising.
