wxSmith build

[tiwag]

what is the proposed (best) way to build wxsmith under linux ?

i couldn't find a linux CB-projectfile for the actual SVN version

[edit]
 it seems as answers this

Well, I 've added it in the build. wxSmith builds when configure runs with --enable-contrib.
I got to tell you: it works SWEET

my primary question how to build 

[byo]

I've removed cbp for unix - it compiles with automake, compiling using .cbp file caused many problems (f.ex. what's deestination path)

Simply run: ./configure --enable-contrib instead of ./configure and it compiles

But I must warn - I haven't work with wxSmith on Linux for some time and I don't know how stable it's on this platform

we'll see  - then you get reports

I got the following error on SVN rev 1627, wxGTK 2.6.2, Slackware 10.2, and it seems related to wxSmith:

I got the following error on SVN rev 1627, wxGTK 2.6.2, Slackware 10.2, and it seems related to wxSmith:
...

i've just built SVN rev 1628 on Ubuntu 5.10 wxGTK 2.6.1-unicode-shared
using G++ 4.0.2 and didn't get any errors

You 're not mentioning your gcc version, but if it is greater then 3.4 the this might be an issue with precompiled headers.
When you 're getting build errors that noone else seems to be getting, delete src/sdk/sdk.h.gch and src/plugins/contrib/wxSmith/wxsheaders.h.gch and re-run "make".

These are the precompiled headers which some times might not be rebuilt even if needed. This might be the source of your problem...

[rudin]

GCC version is 3.3.6. I tried SVN rev 1629 and gain exactly the same error result.

I couldn't find file src/sdk/sdk.h.gch nor src/plugins/contrib/wxSmith/wxsheaders.h.gch.

I configure using enable-contrib option (configure --enable-contrib).

Is there anything wrong with my wxWidgets build? Some result of wx-config:

wx-config --cxxflags:
-I/opt/wx/2.6/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.6 -I/opt/wx/2.6/include/wx-2.6 -DGTK_NO_CHECK_CASTS -D__WXGTK__ -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILES -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE=1 

wx-config --libs:
-L/opt/wx/2.6/lib -pthread   -L/usr/X11R6/lib  -lwx_gtk2u-2.6

Thanks in advance for any help.

The problem with gcc 3.3 is: it doesn't support precompiled headers. So it's pretty clear that you don't have src/sdk/sdk.h.gch and src/plugins/contrib/wxSmith/wxsheaders.h.gch because your compiler can't create them.
As far as I know it should be possible to compile Code::Blocks without using precompiled headers but I had major problems while trying this, too.
I don't know if any of the developers still uses gcc 3.3 so there might really be a problem with the source that just doesn't appear while precompiled headers are used.

Maybe I'll try to compile Code::Blocks with gcc 3.3.6 again to find a solution for this but for now I can obly say that gcc 3.4.4 builds revision 1629 without problems.

Der Meister,

Thanks for your info. I'll upgrade my compiler soon.

I wish you all a happy new year!

[Der Meister]

OK, I tried it. Code::Blocks compiles well without precompiled headers (that surprised me), only the wxSmith plugin needs "some" patches.
Here we go:

And please - remove the macros from wxsglobals.h. It's really disturbing when the compiler tells you errors in code that seems not to exist. For example it couldn't find the declaration for ReadInt in one of the patched files (I think it was wxsdragwindow.cpp) - but ReadInt was never used (directly) in this file. Even more problematic is: The macros for the ConfigManager look like normal variables and not like macros. Without the "Find declaration of... " function it would probably never have found this error.

I was upgraded GCC into version 3.4.5 and everything works like a charm

Thanks for everybody's help.

[byo]

Sorry for problems :oops: And thx for patch

I've updated files and fixed some linux only bugs (I'm working on Win were wxSmith works perfect but and after switch to linux it likes to crash )

Can anyone check if it works now ? And bug-reports would be appreciated
