It's giving you an warning that the configuration you've selected does not exist in your pc.

From where did you download wx lib? What is it's build configuration?? Static or Dynamic? ANSI or Unicode?? Monolithic or Non-Monolithic??

Which settings you've selected in the wizard??

Please post more details.

You've downloaded the source of wxWidgets. You have to compile it before you can start using it with wizard.

Wizard checks for some key libraries in the wxWidgets directory that you provide. But if it does not find them it warns you that you cannot build the project as the key libraries are missing. 

Which compiler are you using?

Extract the Source to a folder. In my PC, I've extracted it into C: drive in root dir, and after extraction the folder looks like "C:\wxMSW-2.8.0".

Click Start > Run, then type cmd and press enter. Change the directory to C:\wxMSW-2.8.0\build\msw

Now type the following command and press enter. This will create Debug-DLL-Unicode-Monolithic lib of wxWidgets.

Code Select Expand

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=debug SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 MONOLITHIC=1

To create Release-DLL-Unicode-Monolithic lib of wxWidgets, type the following and press enter.

Code Select Expand

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 MONOLITHIC=1

For more details, go through the file INSTALL-MSW.txt in C:\wxMSW-2.8.0 folder. Please remember that the build will take lot of time.

Alternatively, you can download wxPack (http://wxpack.sourceforge.net). wxPack comes with wxWidgets lib compiled with GCC.

Hope this helps.
