Code::Blocks runs on the Pi, although a little slow. This is the home page that has a link to their wiki and forum.

Code:Blocks is installed on Raspian using sudo apt-get install codeblocks . This also installs codeblocks-common and codeblocks-contrib, which gives several libraries and compilers and some plugins (see below). The version is a little behind the current release.

GTK+ projects

To use the GTK+ libraries for graphical windowed layouts requires the following settings.

  • From the menu, Settings, Compiler and debugger settings, Other Settings, Compiler logging - set to Full command line. In the Build log, this shows the full commpiler and linker commands used, so that they can be verified.
  • From the menu, Project, Build options, Compiler settings, Other options - add " `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0` " (using backticks, not apostrophies)
  • From the menu, Project, Build options, Linker settings, Other linker options - add " `pkg-config --libs gtk+-3.0` " (using backticks, not apostrophies)

Follow the standard conventions for writing the code.
