!Introduction
This set of instructions will walk you through setting up a Code::Blocks C++ project from scratch. When you have finished this tutorial you will be able to compile a working Ogre Application and you will be ready to start the ((Basic Tutorials)).

!Prerequisites
Follow the instruction at ((Building Your Projects With CMake)) to setup a CMake project.
!Creating an Ogre project with CMake and CodeBlocks
!!CMake GUI
Start cmake-gui and choose source directory and build directory.
Then click '''Configure''' and choose the CodeBlocks makefile generator:
{img fileId="1969" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}
After '''Configure''' click once on '''Generate''' to get a working CodeBlocks project.
!!Open CodeBlocks project
{img fileId="1968" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}
!!Build
From within CodeBlocks, build the project (All) and then choose the '''install''' target and build that:
{img fileId="1967" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}
!!Success
Select '''OgreApp''' as target and run/debug it:
{img fileId="1970" width="400" thumb="y" alt="" rel="box[g]"}
!Conclusion
CodeBlocks is a good development environment, and since CMake has a working generator for it, it is a matter of minutes to get your Ogre project up and running with CodeBlocks.
