If you aren't using the TDM-GCC toolchain there might be minor variation in the executable names. Once you have that directory chosen, in the "Program Files" sub-tab (green arrow) area fill out the fields as shown. Once you are ready, click Install to proceed.Īnd then under the "Toolchain executables" tab (red arrow), click on the ellipsis (".", blue arrow) and choose the root directory where you installed TDM-GCC 32-bit. Go through the installation pages, the red arrows are all the default options which we will be keeping and the last blue arrow is to indicate that you will be putting TDM-GCC into your system's PATH. The Code::Blocks team recommends TDM-GCC.ĭownload the on-demand installer and run it. Which means that when you create your installer for your final program there are less files to include - they are built into your executable itself. TDM-GCC statically links the required toolchain libraries into your final executable.
TDM-GCC is the toolchain that will be used as the example for this guide. On your machine they are in your PATH so you always have them, on your users computers they won't have the compiler toolchain so there you provide the. dll files out of your toolchain directory and include them as part of your installer. When you actually distribute your programs to other computers then you will copy the needed. Which means "Minimalist GNU for Windows." And "GNU" expands to "GNU's Not Unix." More information about the GNU project can be found on the GNU Home Page.įor most MinGW-based compiler toolchains, having your toolchain in your PATH is important because it means that during development the toolchain libraries will be accessible by default to your programs as you develop them and also makes it easier to use utilities such as CMake as they will be able to find your compiler toolchain. The kind of compiler toolchains talked about on this page are "MinGW" toolchains. As a compiler toolchain is a very complex undertaking it is not part of Code::Blocks itself but rather is a separate project that Code::Blocks then uses.
