I have installed on hard disk the Windows version of CodeLite (C:\Programs\CodeLite), then I have copied the 'CodeLite' folder on my USB key and I
have uninstall CodeLite from hard disk.
In USB I have launch codelite.exe but this (great) program won't work: a message say (words are't exact) 'I can run this application because I can't find the program 'mingwm10.dll''. Why? Where is stored the installation path? Can CodeLite run as portable apps?
Thank You
CodeLite don't work on USB

Re: CodeLite don't work on USB
When you install CodeLite, CodeLite adds dlls (among them mingw10.dll and others) to C:\Program Files\CodeLite\bin
Once you moved Codelite to USB and erased the directory CodeLite can not find the mingw10.dll since it is no longer in the path ($PATH is also updated with C:\Program Files\CodeLite\bin).
Copying the dll to the same path as the CodeLite.exe will help just a bit, since you will fail when running other tools (such as the rm, which and other tools which are provided by CodeLite and are being used by it).
The short answer: No, CodeLite can not run as portable application, this will be changed in the next release.

Re: CodeLite don't work on USB
I updated the installer in SVN and also did some modifications so Codelite has no longer dependencies on its path - so it is now portable.
This will be part of the new release (during this weekend).
