ld.exe cannot find -lwxscintilla

Here's what I'm getting:

What directory or file am I missing in build options?
Would be very grateful if some can help, cannot solve this problem for 3 months already...  :cry:

Hi !

Did you check that wxscintilla.a or wxscintilla.lib exist in your tree ?
I am also surprised to see

• the d in every wx lib (-lwxmsw28ud_core -lwxbase28ud) except for wxscintilla; is it normal ?
  
• all wx libs at the beginning of the command prompt; all except wxscintilla. Did you try to change the link order ?

'd's are because it was Debug build target. Same error with Release build target.
I guess I didn't change the order anything.

mean?

interestingly i don't have the file wxscintilla.a nor wxscintilla.lib though i have successfullu compiled
sorry i forgot to mention
i compiled "stc" in contrib directory
that should suffice, right? i think it has wxscintilla in its subdirectories...

You might try removing wxscintilla and replacing it with wxmsw28ud_stc

Hey that worked!

Removed wxscintilla and added "libwxmsw28u_stc.a" as a link library in linker settings.

Thanks everyone!
