1) installing Codeblocks:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

follow the steps here:
http://www.openframeworks.cc/forum/viewtopic.php?t=523
up through step "i"
be sure to download this zip:
http://www.openframeworks.cc/content/files/codeblocks_additions.zip
and add the includes / libs to the corresponding includes / libs folder in mingw.


2) if you want to make a new project:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a) copy the folder inside of apps and paste in the same directory

ie (copy "emptyExample" and paste "copy of emptyExample")

b) rename the folder, and inside the folder, rename the .cbp and .workspace

c) open the .cbp file with a text editor.  change the occurances of the old name to the new name:

line 5: <Option title="emptyExample" />
line 11: <Option output="bin\emptyExample" prefix_auto="1" extension_auto="1" />
line 18: <Option output="bin\emptyExample_DEBUG" prefix_auto="1" extension_auto="1" />

for example, if I copied emptyexample and wanted to call it "coolExample" would look like:

line 5: <Option title="coolExample" />
line 11: <Option output="bin\coolExample" prefix_auto="1" extension_auto="1" />
line 18: <Option output="bin\coolExample_DEBUG" prefix_auto="1" extension_auto="1" />

in the solution file, change the name of .cbp file:

line 4: <Project filename="emptyExample.cbp" active="1" />

to whatever you've renamed the cbp to.




as always if you have issues, check or post on the forum:  openframeworks.cc/forum

have fun!
