wxWidgets project wizard not finding wxWidgets

[Kaze Youkai]

Alright, so I've built wxWidgets according to the Wiki. It generated the libs and the dll, but the new project wizard claims that "The path you entered seems valid, but this wizard can't find wxWikdgets' files in it..." when I specify "F:\C++\Tools\wxGTK" for the path (minus the quotes). wxGTK is the directory with build\msw and the lib\gcc_dll subdirectories.

Any suggestions?

I am using:
C::B svn build 3899
MinGW with GCC 3.4.5
WinXP SP2

Any ideas? MY guess is that there's an option somewhere that I'm missing....

You are using the wxGTK port, get wxMSW for windows.

Edit: Weird, it seems, that the wxGTK also contains the WinApi port :shock:
You need to set the wxwidgets settings in the project wizard exactly like you compiled wx (ansi/unicode, monolithic, dynamic/static, ...).

Yes, but where is that? I looked around, and nothing came up in the settings menu. The wizard stops at the fifth page, where it asks me to locate wxWidgets, long before it asks for any settings. 0.o

I'll try nuking my configuration and see if that helps something....
Edit: Bah. No luck. >.<
Screw it. Does anyone have a wxWidgets build for WinXP that's working up for download somewhere, preferably 2.8.x? At least then I can figure out if it's the build itself or something with Code::Blocks.

If bandwidth is not a problem, then try wxPack (http://wxpack.sourceforge.net/). It comes with pre-compiled wx.

As far as i can see, CRC, LF, sizes and formats are different between wxGTK and wxMSW. And i suppose taht there is a good reason for deploying an specific plattform version for wxWidgets, so i can't understand why are you trying to compile and use wxGTK on Windows XP. Perhaps if you try to build the proper source (wxMSW), your problems would run out.

It's wired, but wxGTK compiles (and runs) for windows (and that's not the gtk port).  :shock:
Just try it. But I surely also recommend to use wxMSW with windows .
