[1]. Developed by The Code::Blocks Team , Code:: block is a free, open-source [2] and cross-platform IDE, which supportsvarious free compilers. It is built around plugin framework, which allows functionality of Code:: block tobe extended by installing appropriate plugins. Plugins required for compiling and debugging are alreadyprovided by default. This Manual is prepared after installing and testing Code:: block on Ubuntu Windows SimplecppSimplecpp is a package used to write and execute turtle based non-graphic/graphic programs.

9 Simplecppis a package developed by Prof. Abhiram Ranade at IIT Bombay and the book on An Introductionto Programming through C++ by Prof. Abhiram Ranade uses Simplecpp to explain basic program-ming. For more information, please refer to the Chapter 1 of the book. Simplecpp is integrated withCode::Blocks and the Simplecpp programs are tested with Code::Blocks on Windows 7 and Ubuntu Code:: block IDECode:: block IDE is shown in figure 1 (Ubuntu ). The main parts of Code:: block along with figuresare discussed belowFigure 1: Code:: block IDE1 Ubuntu with intelR CoreTMi3-2120 CPU @ processor 4 GB RAM and 32-bit architecture and 64bit 7 with intelR CoreTMi3-2120 CPU @ processor 4 GB RAM and 32-bit bar:Menu bar is shown in figure 2.

10 Menu bar can be toggled using F10. Few important link in menubar are described below (described from left to right):Figure 2: Menu Bar(a) File:File menu link contains options to create a new project, open an already existing project,save file, save project, save workspace and save everything. It also contains options for closinga single file, closing a project or closing entire workspace. Other options in File are to print,export and quit the Code:: block (b) Edit:All the editing options required for editor are provided in Edit.(c) View:This menu link contains link for various perspectives and toolbars along with manager,logs, script console, status bar, full screen.(d) Project:Options related to the project is provided in this link which includes configuring buildoptions along with options for adding files, removing files and autoversioning of project.
