Code::Blocks doesn't compile on Ubuntu Linux with wx 2.5
« on: July 25, 2005, 05:02:12 pm »
I'm trying to compile Code::Blocks on my Ubuntu Linux Hoary system, with wxWidgets 2.5.3 but it doesn't work; most of the problems are due to the wxString class, and using the _() macro solves the problem; however there are a lot of wxStrings in the project...

Yes, it's a known problem. Codeblocks doesn't support unicode yet.

The tested configuration is wxwidgets 2.6.1 (with the patch) compiled WITHOUT unicode support. The compilation instructions are in the wiki.

Ok...so if I want to compile I have to change my wxWidgets installation :(

When do you think Code::Blocks is going to support Unicode mode?
Oh yet another thing : is it planned for it to support cross-compiling with MinGW under Linux?

PS : this IDE is really, really a great work, thanks for it, I think it's going to become my main IDE under both platforms :)
PS2 : what do you think about adding SCons support via a plug-in?

After 1.0 is released, which won't be long (RC1 will be released today).

You might want to talk with RShadow. He 's creating a SCons build system for C::B, but not a plugin AFAIK. Search the forums for SCons to find the topic.

Be patient!
This bug will be fixed soon...

Funto,

did you install wx2.5.3 with apt-get?
Because I have yet to see a binary wx package supporting gtk2 (C::B only supports gtk2)...
I suggest you download wxGTK-2.6.1 and build it. It's trivial to compile and a *lot* newer than 2.5.3 you 're currently using.

From personal experience though, the most stable C::B under linux is with wxGTK-2.4.2.

Yiannis.

PS: I use Ubuntu 5.04 too and I 'm *thinking* of releasing a .deb for it.
Be patient!

Wooow there even will be a SCons support O_o
That's amazing, it's the best IDE I know...:)
I've just imported my existing SCons-Linux/VC++-Windows project under Code::Blocks, no problem, the importer works well...congrats ;)

Yes, I did.

Under Ubuntu, the wx-2.4 package only supports GTK1 and is compiled in ANSI mode while the wx-2.5 package uses Unicode and GTK2.

Well, I think I will compile wx 2.6/GTK2 by myself and install it in ANSI mode...

Just a tip about porting to Unicode : wxString::c_str() and wxString::fn_str() are different, c_str() is used when passing argument to a wx function/method while fn_str() is used when passing it to normal C functions.

There isn't any "--disable-unicode" option in wxGTK2.6's ./configure !

If I want to compile it under Linux it seems that I have to use the old wxGTK 2.4...

I don't use any unicode switch in the configure line and it compiles as ansi.
I think you must explicitely use --enable-unicode...

Ah...I didn't know this :D

Nevertheless I will keep trying to compile this with wx 2.4, as it seems that you still experience problems with 2.6 no?

After compiling wxDockit, having to hack the code, and adding the -lwxdockit and -I./src/wxDockit/include options to Makefile.unix, I get this :

Are you sure you obtained the VERSION_1_0 branch from CVS? This is the one used to compile version 1.0.

CVS HEAD needs wxwidgets 2.6.

Rick is right. Up-to-date is VERSION_1_0 and Makefile.unix (for wx2.4). Or you could just download the source package and avoid using CVS.
