Build problems with svn

[Jorg]

Hi all,

I finally got some time to play with builiding code::blocks. I tried loading the unix project in Code::Blocks which I had installed, it built ok, but the codeblocks exec could not find the libcodeblocks.so file while it was in the same dir. I decided to remove the code::blocks rpm to avoid .so clashes and went for the automake.

At first, the automake could not finx wxwin.m4 which I solved by making a symlink in /usr/share/aclocal which did the trick. The bootrstap worked, and configure worked also. But now I am stuck.

This is my wxWidgets build setup:
- wx2.6.3
- unicode
- static build, seperate libs
- release

I have build wwxWidgets and installed it with prefix /home/jorg/related/src/wxGTK.2.6.3-unicode-release, which keeps my system clean as it only wrote everything in that dir, and not across my whole system

I have configured code::blocks with:

./configure --prefix=/home/jorg/bin/codeblocks --disable-shared

And compilng went allright. However, with linking I got errors about the libs being used:

Which left me in the dark. I assume the static linking does not want to work here. It expects shared libs, but I do not have that. I am also uncertain if I can use shared libs in combination with a wxWidgets that is not in the normal install path (I did not use make install as root, nor did I use ldconfig)

So, can I build with a static library, or do I need to somehow use shared libraries for code::blocks?

Thanks,

Ok, I recompiled wxWidgets with shared libs and managed to get the build process complete. I have a prefixed code::blocks now in the directory /home/jorg/codeblocks

And when I try to execute code::blocks, I get a problem with a shared lib. Any ideas?

jorg@burgess:~/bin/codeblocks/bin> ./codeblocks
./codeblocks: symbol lookup error: /home/jorg/bin/codeblocks/lib/libwxscintilla.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZNK17wxGenericListCtrl16DoClientToScreenEPiS0_

The wxscintilla version that is compiled with code::blocks is not right. Is there a patch I must apply or something?
Thanks in advance.

Ok Got it!

I am pretty new to this library thing, but after I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the proper wx2.6.3 I built, everything seemed to work!
Congrats go to the Code::Blocks team, this new version is greatly improved!
