About the App
Codelite Mac Os X
Open Codelite and go to: Settings - Build Settings - Compilers - Tools - Gbd. The ' Gdb ' bar should be empty in this case, and you have to look for the ' gdb32.exe ' file. Like in the image in this site: Build Setting Image. You have to find that file in the following address: C:/Program Files (x86)/CodeBlocks/MinGW/bin. File: gdb32.exe. You can use Codelite on a Mac in order to build the Orx library. I will assume that you have covered the step at Cloning and building the Orx library on the Mac but have come here because you would rather use Codelite than gmake. Platforms: Mac OS X This IDE is the best choice for Mac users. Probably there are so many programmers who prefer to use a Mac. And again this IDE like the previous one (Visual Studio) is not only for C/C developers, there are many other popular languages supported. CodeLite is an open source, free, cross platform IDE specialized in C, C, PHP and JavaScript (mainly for backend developers using Node.js) programming languages which runs best on all major Platforms ( OSX, Windows and Linux ).
