wxCrafter tab is missing in CodeLite

I installed CodeLite with wxWidgets on Ubuntu 17.04. Tried to go through "Hello World" Tutorial. The problem is, I don't have wxCrafter tab:

Also, if I open Plugins → Manage Plugins..., nothing is in there:

How to enable wxCrafter tab?

Solution

  • You probably installed CodeLite from the distro repository. On the Debian and Ubuntu repositories, CodeLite is split into two packages:

    • codelite
    • codelite-plugins

    To install CodeLite with all its plugins, you will need to run:

    apt-get install codelite codelite-plugins

    wxCrafter is not open sourced, but we do support a package that works with Ubuntu 17.04.

    You can get it from here (pick the one that matches Ubuntu 17.04 (zesty) official): http://codelite.org/LiteEditor/Repositories#toc6
