In this video I explain how to install Code::Blocks and the C compiler on the Mac (Note: there are 3 files to download in order to be able to compile!). If you are building for Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you might want to build 'Universal Binaries ' These are binaries that contain code for both PowerPC ('ppc' arch) and Intel ('i386' arch) The basic flags that needs to be added are: CFLAGS += '-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc'. Even though there are a lot of IDEs for Mac OS that might be better than Code blocks, I would suggest you use Code blocks to maintain compatibility as we progress through this course. But it’s not necessary. If you feel like any of the other IDEs like Xcode, Visual Studio or Eclipse is a more comfortable platform, by all means, use that.
Please select a setup package depending on your platform:
NOTE: For older OS'es use older releases. There are releases for many OS version and platforms on the Sourceforge.net page.
NOTE: There are also more recent nightly builds available in the forums or (for Ubuntu users) in the Ubuntu PPA repository. Please note that we consider nightly builds to be stable, usually.
NOTE: We have a Changelog for 20.03, that gives you an overview over the enhancements and fixes we have put in the new release.
NOTE: The default builds are 64 bit (starting with release 20.03). We also provide 32bit builds for convenience. The 32 bit packages have either the same 64 bit compiler as the 64 bit version included or (which is recommended) a 32 bit version of the compiler.

NOTE: The codeblocks-20.03-setup.exe file includes Code::Blocks with all plugins. The codeblocks-20.03-setup-nonadmin.exe file is provided for convenience to users that do not have administrator rights on their machine(s).
Gcc Compiler For Mac
NOTE: The codeblocks-20.03mingw-setup.exe file includes additionally the GCC/G++/GFortran compiler and GDB debugger from MinGW-W64 project (version 8.1.0, 32/64 bit, SEH).
NOTE: The codeblocks-20.03(mingw)-nosetup.zip files are provided for convenience to users that are allergic against installers. However, it will not allow to select plugins / features to install (it includes everything) and not create any menu shortcuts. For the 'installation' you are on your own.
If unsure, please use codeblocks-20.03mingw-setup.exe!

Note: The Linux packages above are compressed archives (tar, tar.xz or tar.bz2). When you decompress the package you downloaded on your system, you will find all the .rpm or .deb packages required to install Code::Blocks.
Note: On RedHat/CentOS older revisions of 6 (up to 6.2 as far as we know) you need to add repoforge (former rpmforge) to your repolist, to be able to install the needed wxGTK-package. See http://repoforge.org/use for an instruction.
Note: Redhat/CentOS probably also needs an installed hunspell-package, if you want to install the contrib-plugins.

NOTES:
- Code::Blocks 20.03 for Mac is currently not available due to issues caused by Apple hardening their install packages and lack of Mac developers. We could use an extra Mac developer to work on these issues.
- The provided download contains an Application Bundle (for the i386 architecture) built for Mac OS X 10.6 (and later), bundling most Code::Blocks plugins.
