Why "Code::Blocks" and not wxDev-C++?

Submitted by mubed on January 29, 2009 - 2:54am

I saw some posts about wxDev-C++, but nobody followed this topic. Is there any reason why you decided to continue with Code::Blocks as the preferred C++ IDE for PortableApps.com, and not wxWidgets? I'm asking because I like wxDev-C++ that lets you develop easily from very simple pure C apps to cross platform wxWidgets.

It would be nice if someone converts Dev C++ (C++ compiling program) and a GIANT advantage would be if someone converts TeamViewer v4 now Smile

Google Chrome

Hi sorry if I am wasting time, am totally new to the forum and a novice at prograamming. hence do not understand tech words. Have been using portable applications for some time and thinks they r gr8.
I wish if there was Portable chrome, as the browser seems to be quite fast. tried but couldnt find a reasonable safe and reliable portable chrome. so would be gr8ful if someone told me about whether chrome could be made portable.
eventually would want to learn how to make portable applications when time permits me.
thanks
regards
