Writing wxWidgets programms

[dedalus]

Hello!
I have been using CodeBlocks for console applications only so far.
Now I want to write wxWidgets applications, but I don't get the it set up correctly. I am using Ubuntu 8.04, I think I have installed all required packages. But when I want to compile the project, I get the following errors:

Code

What do I have to do to make it work?

Thank you very much,
best greetings,

Did you compile wxWidgets or install the devel package for wxWidgets/wxGTK (libwxgtk2.8-dev) ?

I did install libwxgtk2.8-dev, however I did not compile anything. What exactly do I have to compile?

Best greetings,
Sebastian

Do you have the correct minor-version of wxWidgets installed, there are afaik packages that use 2.8.4 and packages that use 2.8.7.

If the last is not included in ubuntu 8.04 you can try downnloading it from wxwidgets.org (look here).

I'm not sure if the wxWidgets-packages build for older ubuntu-versions work with 8.04, but you can try that.

Works!
I don't why (I don't know what I changed) - but well I don't want to be fussy about that :-)

Thank you and bye bye!

Seems like ide just can't find include file. I'd faced this problem before and solved it by pointing Compiler Search Directory to something like $wx.lib\gcc_dll\mswu and gotcha!
