Problems with wxWidgets Applications

RKCole:
I apologize if this has been placed before...

I have never used command-line compilers in the past, and I am not sure how to go about this...
My uncle and I are both having problems successfully compiling the wxWidgets template provided by Code::Blocks.  I have wxWidgets installed to the C:\wxWidgets-2.6.2 directory, but it seems to no avail.

I am not sure what I need to do to get the wxWidgets libraries to work with Code::Blocks.  I've read all I could find, including the Wiki on how to install it via the command-line tin Windows...unless I read the wrong one, my command prompt in windows states that "make" is an invalid command.

What do I need to do to get this to work?  I'm quite confused...just wish I knew more on this.

Thanks for any help provided.

Take care.

Ceniza:
Try mingw32-make instead of make.

RKCole:
Thanks for the response, Ceniza.  I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.  Here is what I get from the command:

--- Code: ---C:\wxWidgets-2.6.2\build\msw>mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc clean
'mingw32-make' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

--- End code ---

rickg22:
OK try this. Search for the file mingw32-make.exe. It should be under the codeblocks dir somewhere.  If you find it, add the respective folder to "My Computer" environment variable "path".

RKCole:
Thanks, rickg22.

The command iswroking now, and once I get to try the instructions on the Wiki, I will post back.

Thanks again.
