# General Introduction
Automatically built Code::Blocks binaries for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows systems. You can always download the latest release at [Releases](https://github.com/asmwarrior/x86-codeblocks-builds/releases).
## Usage
Install the following packages in msys2(64-bit users please use 'x86_64' instead of 'i686'):
````
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain \
mingw-w64-i686-boost \
mingw-w64-i686-hunspell \
mingw-w64-i686-wxwidgets3.2-common \
mingw-w64-i686-wxwidgets3.2-msw \
mingw-w64-i686-drmingw \
mingw-w64-i686-tinyxml
````

Then extract the archive into /opt/codeblocks, export /opt/codeblocks/bin to PATH.
Run codeblocks!
# Usage
Then extract the archive into a folder, and run the `CbLauncher.exe` in the `bin` folder.

## Note
Basically, the release package contains all the `exe` files and `dll` files need to run the Code::Blocks.
Also, it is recommanded that the `CbLauncher.exe` is executed instead of `codeblocks.exe`. Because when you start Code::Blocks by running `CbLauncher.exe`, it is in portable mode, the settings will be stored in the same folder as `codeblocks.exe` in the sub-folder `AppData`.
