====== Building the Orx library on Linux with Code::Blocks ======

You can use Code::Blocks on Linux in order to build the Orx library. I will assume that you have covered the step at [coming soon!] to set up a development environment on Linux.


===== Downloading Code::Blocks for Linux =====

If you don't have Code::Blocks yet, you can download from here: http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/binaries#linux


===== Building Orx =====

Launch Code::Blocks. If this is the first time you have launched it, you will be asked what compiler to use:

Use Code::Blocks to open the workspace at ''orx/code/build/linux/codeblocks'':

{{ tutorials:orx:linux:codeblocks-linux-open-orx-workspace.gif |}}

Build the default config of ''Debug'' and ''64-bit'' by selecting the ''Build workspace'' menu from the ''Build'' menu.

Confirm the output of the build to ensure everything built correctly:

Now to change from the ''Debug|x64'' build to the ''Profile|x64'' build on the ''Workspace'' tab:

Then build again:

Finally, switch to the ''Release|x64'' configuration and build again.
