WxWidget problem

[Adam01]

Hi, I've looked at all the tutorials, tried different methods, and still get the same error:

If I included setup.h, it would say only for msvc.

You obviously haven't looked at all the tutorials. Try the wxWindowsQuickRef.

[Adam01]

Actually I have, and theres no path called "\gcc_dll\" in the entire WxWidget directory.

It is automatically created when you build wxWidgets with shared and release options.

Ok, thanks, I did another command prompt attempt.
But now I get the 2nd FAQ error:

| cannot find -lwxmsw28u|

I checked the linker, everything is fine, what directories should be there anyway?

Did you set your "$(#wx)"-variable correctly to your wxWidgets base directory ?

After doing a wxWidgets release-build their should be a directory like "c:\wxWidgets-2.8.8\lib\gcc_dll" containing "libwxmsw28u.a" and "wxmsw28u_gcc_custom.dll" and some other "*.a" and maybe "*.dll"-files (e.g. from a debug-version).

If you have done everything as described in the "wxWindowsQuickRef" it should work.
You might want to copy the dll's from  c:\wxWidgets-2.8.8\lib\gcc_dll" (in my case) to the "system32" directory of your "windows" folder, because they might not be found otherwise.

[Adam01]

Sorry, there are no files in the gcc_dll directory.
But 'mingw32-make -f "C:\wxWidgets-2.8.8\build\msw\makefile.gcc" MONOLITHIC=1 SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 BUILD=release' fails both ways.
If I 'cd' the mingw32 directory, it wont find config.gcc, if I 'cd' the \build\msw\ directory, it cant find gcc, and returns an error.

Add your MinGW\bin directory to your path-variable and it should work from "c:\wxWidgets-2.8.8\build\msw" .

[Adam01]

It works!
Thank you soo much.

Its doing the wx compiling now...

I've followed these steps but there isn't any lib_dll folder or lwxmsw28u.a created.
[+When I'm trying to make a new project using wxWidgets , It says "A matching Debug/Release configuration connot be found in the wxWidgets ..."]

[Adam01]

Ignore those messages, it works fine anyway.
Check this page out http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=WxWindowsQuickRef
Did you compile wxwidgets?, you need to follow every step, as I found out.
