Note: This DOES NOT include any compilers. If you want compilers, try installing MinGW. That package will be automatically included and detected by Code::Blocks Portable if it's there (at least on first run, I think it should work if added later). Also in the future I'll see if I can create a wxWidgets addon package for wxWidgets development. It may be a bit big though.
Features:
- Support for multiple compilers: GCC (MinGW or GNU GCC), MSVC++, Borland C++ 5.5, and more. MinGW is probably the only officially supported compiler for Code::Blocks Portable, though others should work without too much difficulty.
- Fast custom build solutions: with Code::Blocks, there's no need for makefiles - you can do it all through it's easy-to-use interface.
- Imports other projects: MS Visual C and Dev-C++ projects and workspaces can be imported.
- Powerful debugging: Code::Blocks interfaces GNU GDB for debugging, it fully supports complex breakpoints, can disassemble code, can watch variables, can view stacks, make dumps, read CPU registers, and lots more.
- Easy editing: customizable syntax highlighting, with code folding, code completion, class browser, smart indenting, even a TODO manager, and quite a bit more.
- Plugins: Code::Blocks supports extension by plugins, and Code::Blocks Portable will work with any known plugins.
