Compile errors -SVN r4420 on Kubuntu feisty

[gghelli]

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to compile CB on Kubuntu feisty with wxWdgets 2.8.4 installed from apt.tt-solutions.com, CB source from svn, and g++ v.4.1.2 following the instructions found in the wiki. After correctly running configure when compiling I get the following errors:

Code

Can anybody help me? Thank you

You forgot to install the devel packages (They contain wx headers). I don't remember the exact name, but they will end with -devel word. That will solve your problem.

I don't think this is the case, I've installed the following packages (all version 2.8.4.0-0):

wx2.8-headers
libwxbase2.8-0
ibwxbase2.8-dev
libwxgtk2.8-0
libwxgtk2.8-dev
wx2.8-i18n

I've alse checked the actual presence of the include files in the include path, in fact there's no error message complaining about missing header files.
I need to compile codeblocks myself because I wan't to use the QTWorkbench plugin, otherwise I would use a deb distribution.
Thank you

PS: the kubuntu installation is a clean one with all updates installed.

Set the highlighted define to -DwxUSE_GUI=1

[gghelli]

I solved the problem, I had to run the following command;

sudo update-alternatives --config wx-config

and I choose the wx-config package from wxgtk2.8-dev instead of wxbase2.8-dev, now it doesn't even define wxUSE_GUI.

Thank you for your help
