Welcome to wxWindows/Gtk 2.1 snapshot 5,
you have downloaded version 2.1 of the GTK+ 1.2 port of
the wxWindows GUI library. This is a developers release
and is it not suited for production development. Beware
that major changes can happen before a final release -
Particularly the makefile system will change entirly.
More information is available from my homepage at:
http://wesley.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~wxxt
and about the wxWindows project as a whole (and the
Windows and Motif ports in particular) can be found
at Julian Smart's homepage at:
http://web.ukonline.co.uk/julian.smart/wxwin
Information on how to install can be found in the file
INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
many systems (when using GTK 1.0 read the INSTALL.txt):
./configure
make
su <type root password>
make install
ldconfig
exit
Type the following to make the samples
make samples
To start the samples, change into the directory that
corresponds to the sample and your system, e.g on a
linux-gnu machine the minimal sample would get started
from the wxWindows base dir with
./samples/minimal/linux-gnu/minimal
When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
my homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT
DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. I know
this has no effect, but I tried...
The library produced by the install process will be called
libwx_gtk2.a (static) and libwx_gtk2.so.1.0 (shared) so that
once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Gtk comes out
we'll augment the library version number to avoid linking problems.
Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users Information on
how to subscribe is available from my homepage.
wxWindows/Gtk doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
crash your harddisk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
suitable for any special or general purpose.
Regards,
Robert Roebling
