Subject: Re: Compiling 2.0 wxWin Apps in the VC IDE
Date: Wed, 20 May 1998 14:18:02 +0100
First the apology: the description below is for wx1.68
not for wx2.0 - sorry if I confused everybody.
Anyway, third time lucky I hope! The settings for
VC++ 5.0, wx2.0 beta 8, NT Workstation 4.0 sp3
are:
In project / settings / C/C++:
Add "__WINDOWS__" to the pre-processor definitions
Add "{wx}\include" to the additional include directories
where {wx} is the directory in which wx is installed
In project / settings / Resources:
add "{wx}\include" to the additional resource include directories
In project / settings / Link:
Add "wx.lib comctl32.lib dummy.obj" to the Object/Library modules
Add "libcd.lib,libcid.lib" to ignore libraries (under the "input" category)
Add "{wx}\lib,{wx}\src\msw" to the additional library path
I have tested these settings on samples/minimal and can
build exes which can be debugged using Developer Studio.
I hope I've finally answered the original question. (Next time
I'll read the question more carefully!).
Regards,
Chris
Original message (settings for wx1.68c):
) Try the following (tested with VC++ 5 on NT4):
)
) Create a new Win32 Application project and insert the source files
) (including .rc files).
)
) In project / settings / C/C++:
) Add wx_msw to the pre-processor definitions
) add {wx}\include\base,{wx}\include\msw to the additional include
directories
) where {wx} is the directory in which wx is installed
)
) In project / settings / Resources:
) add {wx}\include\msw;{wx}\contrib\fafa to the additional resource include
) directories
)
) In project / settings / Link:
) Add comctl32.lib wx.lib dummy.obj ctl3d32.lib to the Object/Library modules
)
) Add libc to ignore libraries (under the "input" category)
)
) Add {wx}\lib,{wx}\src\msw to the additional library path
)
) These settings are for a debug build. You can use the same settings for
) a release build apart from ignoring libc.
