Linux logo Building CodeLite on Linux

To build CodeLite on your computer you will need these packages:

  • wxWidgets 3.0 or later
  • The gtk development package: often called libgtk2.0-dev or wxGTK-devel or similar
  • pkg-config (which usually comes with the gtk dev package)
  • The build-essential package (or the relevant bit of it: g++, make etc)
  • git
  • cmake

You should have wxWidgets 3.0 or later built on your machine. If you don't know how to build (or you're just lazy ...) you can download it install wxWidgets from CodeLite's repository

On Ubuntu / Debian you can install all of the above (except for wxWidgets 3.0) by typing:

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev pkg-config build-essential git cmake libssh-dev libwxbase3.0-dev libsqlite3-dev libwxsqlite3-3.0-dev

Git clone the sources:

git clone https://github.com/eranif/codelite.git

Run cmake and build codelite:

cd codelite
mkdir build-release
cd build-release
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make -j4
sudo make install

Prerequisites:

  • wxWidgets 3.x
  • CMake
  • HomeBrew
  • git
  • XCode
  • XCode command-line tools

Preparation:

  • (Optional) Make a separate folder for building if you want to get rid of all except the .app file after building
  • Install XCode from Mac App Store
  • Install XCode command-line tools xcode-select --install
  • Install HomeBrew :
 ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  • Update HomeBrew : brew update
  • (Optional) Upgrade HomeBrew packages : brew upgrade
  • Install git : brew install git
  • Install CMake : brew install cmake
  • Install wxWidgets : brew install wxmac --dev --use-llvm

Clone the repo (lets assume that you have a folder /Users/YOU/src)

cd /Users/YOU/src
git clone https://github.com/eranif/codelite.git

the above will create the folder /Users/YOU/codelite

To build CodeLite:

cd /Users/YOU/codelite
mkdir build-release
cd build-release
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
make -j4
make install

You should now have an app bundle /Users/YOU/codelite/build-release/codelite.app

To launch CodeLite:

open /Users/YOU/codelite/build-release/codelite.app

Git clone the sources

git clone https://github.com/eranif/codelite.git
  • Download codelite installer for Windows from our Download Page
  • Download wxWidgets 3.0 installer. Also from our Download Page
  • Open the workspace LiteEditor.workspace (located in the codelite folder)
  • Make sure that the project CodeLiteIDE is selected (the active project uses bold font)
  • Select the Win_x64_Release or Win_x86_Release (depending if you want to build a 32 or 64 bit version of CodeLite) and hit F7
  • When the compilation is over, close the workspace
  • Next, locate the workspace codelite_utils/codelite_utils.workspce and open it
  • Select the Win_x64_Release or Win_x86_Release (depending if you want to build a 32 or 64 bit version of CodeLite) hit F7 and wait for the compilation to end
  • Close CodeLite
  • To update your installation with the new codelite, close codelite and from a CMD.EXE window navigate to codelite-sources/Runtime/ and run the file update.bat OR update64.bat (again, depending on your selected arch)
