Can't create a wxWidgets Project

[coder99]

My guess is:
You imported the minimal using CL VS importer?

No, I was trying to follow the wxWidget tutorial, IIRC, but named it minimal

Code: Select all

-lwxexpat.lib -lwinmm.lib -lcomctl32.lib -lrpcrt4.lib

Who added these libraries?

That must have been me
I copied the libraries from the MSVC workspace and did not notice or pay attention to the extension

CodeLite is searching what you told him to search...

Can u try and create a simple wx project using CL WX wizard?

point
WXWIN to the base of your WX install directory
and
WXCFG gcc_lib\mswud

Eran
Eran

They are set that way.

After removing the extensions from my libraries list, I find some multiply defined errors.
I'll have to go through the list and see what I can figure out.

But I am getting closer.

I very much appreciate your help and patience.
Later edit:
The release version now compiles and runs, the debug version still gives me the same problem

Code: Select all

can u post your project?

Maybe if I will look it at here, it will be quicker

Eran

[coder99]

Looks like the .lib extensions was my mistake when copying the libraries - I cut & pasted from MSVC.

For this project I was following the wxWidgets tutorial but named it minimal.

I have meanwhile resolved all problems with this project and can now compile and run both the release and debug versions.

A very big Thank you for both the software and your patience in helping me sort this out.

There are still times when it seems I have to exit CL and restart before I can have it do what I expect, but that could easily be (more) finger problems at my end
