Hi All,

First post, new to programming. After some research, I've chosen code::blocks on Windows 10 as my ide for c++, (with MinGW) I'm having some trouble getting it set up...

I've been trying to compile wxWidgets but on starting a new project, global variable editor dialog box comes up with this message

"in the currently active set, Code::Blocks does not know the global compiler variable "wx". Please define it."

I can't find any previous searches with this exact issue so I'd appreciate any pointers :)

Thanks for any replies,

 

cacb:
You have to define 'wx' via

Settings -> Global Variables ....

The 'base' value should typically point to the root folder of your wxWidgets installation

Hi cacb thanks for that.


now getting a dialog warning tho - attached
(I've tried 3.0.2    & 3.1.0)

Did you build a Release type build of wxWidgets?

Did you build any type of build of wxWidgets?

Hi Tim,

Yes it was a release build, I typed in to cmd:
mingw32-male -f make file.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 UNICODE=1


Thanks for your help with this
