Hi all,

I am try to develop a simple frame-based window app on windows PC.

There's a linker error as following:

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /c "mingw32-make.exe -j 4 -e -f  "edid_parser_wsp.mk""

But under "C:\wxWidgets-2.9.4\lib\gcc_dll", there's lib{some}.a.

Can anyone do me a favor?

Did you compile wxWidgets yourself? and did you compile it as static version?
ld is looking for the .a version of wxWidgets - if you did not compile it as static, then it will fail in linking (same as it did for you)

Hi Eranif,

Thanks for your kindly support.

I download it with refer to an announce sent by you. The download url is: http://superb-dca3.dl.sourceforge.net/p ... NABLED.exe

I see it ships so many prebuilt library(*.a, *.dll), i infer that is capable of both static and dynamic linking. so i use it directly after installing(other than compiling it from scratch).

the -static flag is added by me. As i am a usual linux developer, not sure about the ld's behavior on minGW(search by libsome.so or some.so, or libsome.a when -lsome is set).

Also, i list the directory structure as following:
C:.
├─build
│ └─msw
├─include
│ ├─msvc
│ │ └─wx
│ └─wx
│ ├─android
│ ├─aui
│ ├─dfb
│ │ └─private
│ ├─generic
│ │ └─private
│ ├─html
│ ├─meta
│ ├─msdos
│ ├─msw
│ │ ├─ole
│ │ ├─private
│ │ └─wince
│ ├─persist
│ ├─private
│ ├─propgrid
│ ├─protocol
│ ├─ribbon
│ ├─richtext
│ ├─stc
│ ├─univ
│ ├─xml
│ └─xrc
└─lib
└─gcc_dll
├─mswu
│ └─wx
│ └─msw
└─mswud
└─wx
└─msw
And in the c:\wxWidgets-2.9.4\lib\gcc_dll, there are:

c:\wxWidgets-2.9.4\lib\gcc_dll>ls
libwxbase29u.a libwxmsw29u_gl.a libwxmsw29ud_html.a libwxscintillad.a wxbase294ud_xml_gcc_cl.dll wxmsw294ud_adv_gcc_cl.dll

libwxmsw29u_core.a libwxmsw29ud_gl.a libwxscintilla.a wxbase294ud_net_gcc_cl.dll wxmsw294u_xrc_gcc_cl.dll wxrc.exe

Can you help me to figure out what's the cause of building failure?

Thanks,

The wx installer that we provide for Windows is built as shared libraries. You can't use it for static building, you will need to build wxWidgets yourself to enable it

Would you help to tell any guide about how to dynamic link wxwidget libraries on windows PC?

Will the ld search & use the {some}.dll when -lsome flag added, -static flag removed?

Thanks,
faywong

Just try one of the built-in wxWidgets templates of codelite without changing it (if you did not modify anything in codelite, they should work out of the box)
note that codelite uses the wx-config.exe tool under Windows, which requires you to set WXCFG and WXWIN environment variables
