CodeLobster IDE

Thanks more for the tips! I finally fixed this error, I searched all over the Internet, but I finally found the answer on your forum! here apparently people really understand and are fully competent in these matters.

Hi there,
I am pleased to report: Success.
It took about 2 hours to go through the make business.
My machine is rather old by current standards. [Pentium G620 @2.60GHZ, 4GiB memory, but a rather newish Samsung SSD 860 EVO drive.]

Anyway, now if I get a listing of the libraries it goes up to ver 24, exactly as you have given them in stage 5 of your instructions.
[previously it would go up to 19]

So, thank you once again for your patience and the time that you spent on this.
Kind regards.

Now, let's have a look...

Hi.

Looks like Centos7 includes older version of gcc.
The following steps should help:

1. Update OS and install required tools
sudo yum -y update
sudo yum -y install gcc
sudo yum -y install wget
sudo yum -y install gcc-c++
sudo yum -y install bzip2

2. Download gcc
cd ~Downloads
wget http://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/sourceware.org/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-7.3.0/gcc-7.3.0.tar.gz
tar zxf gcc-7.3.0.tar.gz
cd gcc-7.3.0

3. Compile (this operation will take about 10-30 minutes)
./contrib/download_prerequisites
./configure --disable-multilib --enable-languages=c,c++
make -j 4
sudo make install

4. Replace
cd /usr/local/lib64
sudo cp libstdc++.so.6.0.24 /usr/lib64/
cd /usr/lib64/
sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.OLD
sudo ln -sf libstdc++.so.6.0.24 libstdc++.so.6

5. Checking
strings /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep 'GLIBCXX_3.4.2'

--- should return something like
---GLIBCXX_3.4.2
---GLIBCXX_3.4.20
---GLIBCXX_3.4.21
---GLIBCXX_3.4.22
---GLIBCXX_3.4.23
---GLIBCXX_3.4.24
---GLIBCXX_3.4.21
---GLIBCXX_3.4.24
---GLIBCXX_3.4.20
---GLIBCXX_3.4.2
---GLIBCXX_3.4.23
---GLIBCXX_3.4.22

6. OS reboot
sudo reboot

Hi there,
Thank you. I tried again but unfortunately no joy as yet.
It stiil complains about the two missing libraries.

NB.: by the way I did not get a notification about your update on the 19th.
Thanks again.

Hi.

Could You, please, try new installation by the same URL:
http://codelobsteride.com/download/codelobsteride-1.10.2-1.x86_64.rpm

Thanks,
Codelobster Team.

Hi there,
Thank you.
Please let me know when you have the solution.
Kind regards.

Hi.

Looks like several libraries don't works on CentOS indeed.
We are researching the problem now.

Thanks,
Codelobster Team.

Oh, yes.
Thank you.
It is complaining about two missing C++ libraries:
libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' and 3.4.21
I would have thought that the installer would have picked this up and output some error message.
It did not and said voila, success.
My system is: centos-release-7-8.2003.0.el7.centos.x86_64
Running on 3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64 kernel.

A quick search gives me the two libraries available for Centos 6 and 8, but not 7.
So, what next?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
kind regards.

You should run it from the command line: you may get errors messages. ;-)

Hi,
I just installed the rpm download of the IDE and it was installed on my Centos 7 machine with no problems reported.
However, it refuses to start.
The IDE version is listed on the download page as for Fedora. I thought that it would be O.K. on Centos as both are flavours based on RedHat.
So, any ideas? Any work-around solutions?, please?
P.S. I can supply any other info if needed. Please just let me know.
Thank you.
