The base dir should be the top-most dir containing wxWidgets. Means if you specify the base dir to be C:\foo then the include dir would be C:\foo\include lib-dir would be C:\foo\lib etc.

In your case the base dir should be set to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\

Are you just compiling the release version of the project?
What SVN version are you using?
I will try to do step by step directions on building a new wxWidgets project. Also, I will use same SVN to verify it works.

Do this Biplab is right; I was wrong. Been up to long I guess.

Dear Tim,

I've not using any SVN, I just download the wxWidgets source and compile by myself using the following command within a cmd file running on a Windows XP SP2 machine,

Code
set path=K:\DEV\bin\MinGW-5.1.3\bin;K:\DEV\bin\MinGW-5.1.3\mingw32\bin
K:
cd K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\build\msw
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx

With the above command, I think I have compiled both the release and debug version of the library as I can find the wxmsw28u_gcc_xxx.dll and wxmsw28ud_gcc_zac.dll under K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib\msw\gcc_dll folder.

Biplab, I have changed the global variable settings to have base pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4, include pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\include and lib pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib, but I got error when using the wizard to create a new project. This back to the original question of how to make CB to use the wxmsw28u_gcc_xxx.dll as CB seems to look for wxmsw28u_gcc_custom.dll instead.

Regards,

zac

I meant in the Code::Blocks "Help" -> "About" what SVN number is it?
Mine is 4486.

Please turn on full command line reporting by
"Settings" -> "Compiler and Debugger"
Select "Other" Tab
Change "Compiler Logging" to "Full Command Line"

Do a re-build of your project and post the "Build Log"

Biplab, I have changed the global variable settings to have base pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4, include pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\include and lib pointed to K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib, but I got error when using the wizard to create a new project. This back to the original question of how to make CB to use the wxmsw28u_gcc_xxx.dll as CB seems to look for wxmsw28u_gcc_custom.dll instead.

Wizard looks for appropriate (import) libraries. So if you provide the following information to the wizard:
Shared= true, Unicode = true, Monolithic = true, $(#wx)=C:\foo then wizard will look for-
  • C:\foo\lib\gcc_dll\libwxmsw28ud.a for Debug configuration
  • C:\foo\lib\gcc_dll\libwxmsw28u.a for Release configuration

This ensures that you have the proper libraries installed.

I guess in your case a libwxmsw28u.a file exists in your C:\MinGW\lib folder. That could be the cause that despite you provide link to the new import library it tries to load old dll.


BTW, the errors you have posted shows that there is no setup.h file inside K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib\gcc_dll\mswu\wx folder. Which also means that there is no library inside K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib\gcc_dll\ folder. :)
Be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem.

I have uploaded what I did to test SVN 4425 to this file "wxWidgets project using SVN 4425.7z"
On http://www.savefile.com/projects/1039215

Please try these directions and see if it works for you.

If they don't, I still need the "Build Log"  to figure out what is going wrong.

Dear Tim,

Where can I find the "Build Messages"?

Use F2 Key to bring up or close down the "Message" Window.
It has several tabs.

Right clicking on a Tab will bring up a menu to show tabs not being displayed.

I need to see the "Build Log" results to figure out the cause of the problem.

The two tabs farthest right are normally the "Build Log" and "Build Messages"

Dear Biplab,

I cannot find any libwxmsw28u.a files under K:\DEV\bin\MinGW-5.1.3\lib. And yes, I cannot find setup.h inside K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib\gcc_dll\mswu\wx. So, should I recompile wxWidgets?

I'll use the following to recompile once more to see any difference.
Code
set path=K:\DEV\bin\MinGW-5.1.3\bin;K:\DEV\bin\MinGW-5.1.3\mingw32\bin
K:
cd \DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\build\msw

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx clean

mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc USE_GUI=1 USE_HTML=1 USE_ODBC=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_XRC=1 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release UNICODE=1 VENDOR=xxx

Thanks Tim,

I'll try again, also with your project file, after I re-compile the wxWidgets libraries.

Yes, try again after you get the setup.h in the folder "K:\DEV\bin\wxWidgets-2.8.4\lib\gcc_dll\mswu\wx"

It should be created by the "mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc" commands without the clean target.

Thanks Tim and Biplab,

I finally made it.

I think it is the compiling of wxWidgets command causing some of the files being erased after compiling (Previously I perform a clean for each type of library being compiled, and this time, I've moved all the clean target at top of my cmd file for compilation).

Many thanks for your patients to teach me step by step.

Thanks again for all of you have contributed to my post.

Regards,

zac
