hi done everything you said but after i have selected the wxwidget location and choosen the GNU GCC compiler and i choose the 1st 3 options and create and use a precompiles header (PCH) i get i get this message

A matching Debug configuration cannot be found in wxWidgets directory you specified.
This means that Debug target of your project will not build.

i followed the instructions here to build a simple gui app. exe hello world from http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=WxSmith_tutorial:_Hello_world

It means exactly that. You can compile wxWidgets in many different ways - a.k.a. "configurations". You chose a configuration where your wxWidgets was not compiled for. What is the configuration? (E.g. monolitic, unicode, debug?)

Hi thanks for the reply

For the configurations option i selected for wxWidgets libary Setings :Use wxWidgets Dll, wxWidgets is built as a monolithic library and Enable unicode

For the Miscellaneous Settings: i selected Create and use precompiled header (PCH)

Did you compile wxWidgets usingthat config? Notice: The download of wxWidgets just provides you with the sources.
You should have a file called "libwxmsw28u.a" in your wxWidgets lib folder.
