cpp.codeblocks.0: Installing Code::Blocks - Windows

In this video tutorial, we walkthrough configuring and installing Code::Blocks C++ IDE on Windows 7. Enjoy the tutorial!

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn about Code::Blocks.
  • Learn about MinGW.
  • Compare the advantages and disadvantages of running Code::Blocks in a Linux versus Windows environment.
  • Learn how to install and configure Code::Blocks and MinGW on a Windows 7 system.

One thing that I love about Code::Blocks is its cross-platform capability. Code::Blocks runs on GNU/Linux, Mac, and Windows. This allows me to write and compile code on any of the three major platforms. I mostly run Code::Blocks on my Fedora GNU/Linux machine, but I provided this Windows installation tutorial because the vast majority of computer users still run Windows.
