=== General instructions ===
=== Compiling the SVN version ===


The build requirements in the source RPM are set to a minimum. So it isn't checked whether wxGTK is installed or not. So you have to take a look at it yourself.
This has to be installed before starting:
* wxGTK >= 2.6.0 and its devel package,
* zip,
* subversion,
* update-desktop-files,
* make,
* gettext,
* autoconf >= 2.5,
* automake >= 1.7,
* libtool >= 1.4,
* m4,
* intltool,
* gcc-c++ and
* libstdc++-devel


This has to be installed:
1. You need to get the latest sources from SVN (described here [[Compiling_Code::Blocks_in_Linux_(applies_to_all_distros)#Getting_the_latest_sources_from_SVN]])
# wxGTK and its devel package
# wxGTK-xrc and its devel package (in some distributions included in the packages of point 1)


=== Compiling the Release Candidate 2 ===
2. go into ''trunk'', if you haven't already done it.


1. Download the source RPM from [https://www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml]
3. run these three commands in this order
./bootstrap
./configure --enable-contrib
make dist
the last one will create a .tar.gz archive that contains the sources.


2. Build the binary package as root
4. copy the archive as root to the directory /usr/src/packages/SOURCES
  rpmbuild --rebuild codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm
  sudo mv codeblocks-trunk-r$REVISION.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCES


3. The binary RPM should be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS
5. build the binary packages as root with
sudo rpmbuild -bb codeblocks.spec
This will create several packages in one of the architecture specific subdirectories (i586, x86_64, ...) of /usr/src/packages/RPMS/.
These are:


=== Compiling the CVS/SVN version ===
* codeblocks: main package
* codeblocks-contrib: contrib plugins
* codeblocks-devel: SDK headers
* codeblocks-debuginfo: stripped debug information


1. You need a fresh CVS/SVN version (described here [[Compiling_Code::Blocks_in_Linux_(applies_to_all_distros)#Getting_the_latest_sources_from_SVN]], but don't cd into the directory trunk), no ./bootstrap or anything else should be done before in this directory !
6. Install the packages you want (usually codeblocks and codeblocks-contrib) and enjoy Code::Blocks!


2. Rename the directory ''trunk'' to ''codeblocks''. Stay in the directory above ''codeblocks''.
=== Compiling the Release Candidate 2 ===


3. Get SVN revision number. You can see it in the last line after checking out (the number after "Revision:") or SVN with:
The build requirements in the source RPM are set to a minimum. So it isn't checked whether wxGTK is installed or not. So you have to take a look at it yourself.
svn info codeblocks/ | grep Revision | cut -c 11-


4. add the directory codeblocks to an tgz archive named codeblocks-1.0-svn.$SVNREVISION.tgz (replace $SVNREVISION with the number you got)
This has to be installed:
tar -czf codeblocks-1.0_0.svn.$SVNREVISION.tgz codeblocks
# wxGTK and its devel package
# wxGTK-xrc and its devel package (in some distributions included in the packages of point 1)


5. copy the archive as root to the directory /usr/src/packages/SOURCES
1. Download the source RPM from [https://www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml]


6. copy the Specfile beneath, add the SVN revision number behind "_svnrev" (between "_svnrev" and the number has to be at least one space character) in the first line and save it as root to /usr/src/packages/SPECS/codeblocks.spec (you can name the specfile however you want)
2. Build the binary package as root
rpmbuild --rebuild codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm


7. build the binary package as root with
3. The binary RPM should be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS
rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/packages/SPECS/codeblocks.spec
 
8. the package will be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS/
 
9. Install it and enjoy Code::Blocks!

Compiling the SVN version

This has to be installed before starting:

  • wxGTK >= 2.6.0 and its devel package,
  • zip,
  • subversion,
  • update-desktop-files,
  • make,
  • gettext,
  • autoconf >= 2.5,
  • automake >= 1.7,
  • libtool >= 1.4,
  • m4,
  • intltool,
  • gcc-c++ and
  • libstdc++-devel

1. You need to get the latest sources from SVN (described here Compiling_Code::Blocks_in_Linux_(applies_to_all_distros)#Getting_the_latest_sources_from_SVN)

2. go into trunk, if you haven't already done it.

3. run these three commands in this order

./bootstrap
./configure --enable-contrib
make dist

the last one will create a .tar.gz archive that contains the sources.

4. copy the archive as root to the directory /usr/src/packages/SOURCES

sudo mv codeblocks-trunk-r$REVISION.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCES

5. build the binary packages as root with

sudo rpmbuild -bb codeblocks.spec

This will create several packages in one of the architecture specific subdirectories (i586, x86_64, ...) of /usr/src/packages/RPMS/. These are:

  • codeblocks: main package
  • codeblocks-contrib: contrib plugins
  • codeblocks-devel: SDK headers
  • codeblocks-debuginfo: stripped debug information

6. Install the packages you want (usually codeblocks and codeblocks-contrib) and enjoy Code::Blocks!

Compiling the Release Candidate 2

The build requirements in the source RPM are set to a minimum. So it isn't checked whether wxGTK is installed or not. So you have to take a look at it yourself.

This has to be installed:

  1. wxGTK and its devel package
  2. wxGTK-xrc and its devel package (in some distributions included in the packages of point 1)

1. Download the source RPM from www.codeblocks.org/downloads.shtml

2. Build the binary package as root

rpmbuild --rebuild codeblocks-1.0-rc2.src.rpm

3. The binary RPM should be in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src/packages/RPMS
