Help, need link library, libwxmsw26u.a

[arst]

Hello,

I'm usually compiling against wxWidgets 2.8.0. Now I'm working
with testing a plugin under development and I need test against
wxW 2.6. And, for that I need the import library for wxmsw26u.dll

Could some kind person upload libwxmsw26u.a (maybe to savefile.com)?

If possible I'd prefer not installing wxw 2.6 and doing all the compiling.

Thanks,
Arst

You can link directly to the dll you already have, you don't need the import library.

How can we do that? Give us some links.

Hi !

On the linker part of the project Build options, you can add static libraries. To add dynamic libraries (dlls), just change the file filter to "all files" and select the dlls you want.

Is it possible to change extensions add the dll extension to the .a, .so... as it is possible to use them for link ?

I've been testing linking directly to DLLs on a number of projects
now. Sometimes it works, sometimes I get a bunch of errors
from the linker.

I could not link the CodeBlocks app against codeblocks.dll and
wxmsw26u_gcc_cb.dll. Changing back to .a lib files it worked.

My plugin compiles and links fine with the wxwidgets DLL.

There's a good page on the subject here: http://linux.web.cern.ch/linux/scientific4/docs/rhel-ld-en-4/win32.html

OK
