Can not build wxWidgets project

Post by souloser »

I installed Mingw32 / wxWidgets / codelite

To build wxWidgets-2.8.8 I use:
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 USE_XRC=1
or
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1

When I build console wxWidgets sample(Simple main with wxWidgets enabled) , it's OK
When I build GUI wxWidgets sample(GUI application with main Frame) , not work , the out put is:

Code: Select all

Building: "C:/MinGW/bin/mingw32-make.EXE"  -j 2 -f "fff_wsp.mk" type=Debug

For more , my Code:Blocks work well.

Sorry for my poor Enlish.

It looks like that wx-config tool is not output-ing the library which includes 'xrc'

can you list here the content of your:

<path/to/wxwidgets>/lib/gcc_dll/ or <path/to/wxwidgets>/lib/gcc_lib/ (am not sure if you are using dll or static library)

In addition, I would recommend building wxWidgets as monolithic/shared like this:

Code: Select all

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug


or

Code: Select all

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release

	frame->Show(TRUE);
	SetTopWindow(frame);
	return TRUE;

int DddApp::OnExit()

It not work

Code: Select all

//	wxXmlResource::Get()->InitAllHandlers();

                                   wxT("ddd"),
                                   wxDefaultPosition,
                                  wxSize(800, 600));
	


	frame->Show(TRUE);
	SetTopWindow(frame);
	return TRUE;
}

int DddApp::OnExit()
{
	return 0;
}

It seems that this library is not added during link time by wx-config tool:
libwxmsw28ud_xrc.a

to fix this:

Right click project and select 'settings ...'

In the settings, switch to the 'Linker' tab

In the 'Libraries' field, add this:

Code: Select all

;libwxmsw28ud_xrc.a;
(add semicolon before the lib name)

Uncomment your code, and compile it again
