CodeLite IDE

I've just installed codelite and supporting items using codelite-1.0.3035-mingw3.4.5-wx2.8.10.exe.

I've tried following the quickstart at http://codelite.org/LiteEditor/QuickStart.

After adapting for some failures, I received the error:
...well, appears I can't copy out of build tab...

but, its complaining of missing wx/setup.h, included from wx/platform.h.

There is a setup.h in wx/msw, wx/msw/wince, and wx/univ, but not one in plain 'wx'. (And the file wx/platform.h attempts to include "wx/setup.h".)

Have I missed a step, or did the installer, or ?

Thanks.

Select the text and right click it 'Copy'. This is fixed in the next release standard keyboard shortcuts will work inside the 'output view' tabs.

Paste the error here and I will see what I can do about it.

Ahh - well it's not just the standard keys, Copy also wasn't enabled on the main menu edit toolbar...

But here's the first section - there are many more after, but I suspect its the absence of the setup.h that's leading to much of it... I expect one of the setup.h files from one of those subdirectories is supposed to be there, and don't know what it is not...

and so on and so on...

I need to see the command that codelite was running.

it usually starts with 'g++'

This should overlap with the first part of what I previously posted, and is from the beginning of the build output pane...

In short, set SHELL environment variable (do it from your system settings and not from within codelite) to CMD.EXE and restart codelite

See here:

Eran

That didn't seem to help me.

I set the variable, and verified from a new DOS cmd prompt that it was there.

reload CL and still get similar results (there still isn't a 'setup.h' in c:\wxWidgets-2.8.10\include\wx, regardless of whether using forward/backward slahes in paths - I think that's the problem, but I don't know what was supposed to put the setup.h there, but wxWidgets own header, platform.h, apparently expects it to be there!):

One more question:

You got another g++ on your machine from cygwin installation (and it does not like the backslashes in the output of wx-config)

Please make sure that you are using the correct g++ (the one from MinGW)
Eran

Yes, there was a cygwin, and it was in the path. (There was also another mingw besides the codelite provided one, but that wasn't in the path.)

After removing cygwin from my path, the build succeeded.

Thanks.

(Should codelite workspace settings perhaps have a "Current gcc/mingw toolset" setting? Or, does it somewhere already? I can envision that some people might want to be able to change the particular toolset being used. I once was in a situation where I had [and needed] four different versions of MS dev tools installed and available to be able to support important customers on releases that had been built with those various toolsets. I suppose such a setting at the project level might have been sufficient, although a lot more trouble to change when moving to a new toolset revision since it would have to be changed for each project. I suppose that could be extended to various external items - I'm a newbie to both wxwidgets and to [anticipated] wxformbuilder, but can imagine that each of those won't be forward/backward compatible over time either, and thus selectable/settable version locations might be useful.)

You can define / modify N toolchains

Look at:
Settings | Build Settings | Compiler

The default compiler is set to g++. By default codelite comes with 3 settings, but you can add as many as you want.
Everything is configurable.


In the project settings dialog (right click on the project) and in the 'General' tab you can select the compiler to work with.
