MouseSap fails to compile with wxgtk + gtk3

<< < (2/2)

sodev:
I don't think i've ever build CodeBlocks with CodeBlocks on Linux but i guess the project files contain plain calls to wx-config and your wx-config defaults to the gtk2 variant. In autotools builds i just specifiy the wx-config script of the variant i want to use, a hotfix for your case might be to change the wx-config script, which is only a symlink to the real script, to point the the script of the gtk3 variant.

Where is location of the wx-config script?

oBFusCATed:
1. Go to Project -> Build options -> select the root in the tree -> Custom variables
2. WX_CONFIG to "wx-config --version=3.0 --toolkit=gtk3"

I thought you've already passed this step, that's why I've not mentioned it. This is going to work only if wx-config --list returns an output which has a gtk3 version. If not you'll have to change the whole wx-config to point to the correct version of this script.

p.s. You'll have to do this for every plugin project you need to build. :(

Depends on your system, for me it is:

--- Code: ---$ which wx-config
/usr/local/bin/wx-config

$ ls -l /usr/local/bin
wx-config -> /usr/local/lib64/wx/config/gtk3-unicode-3.1

--- End code ---

The other scripts will be in a similar location. This is faster than editing every CodeBlocks project file :)

Pecan:
Fixed in head r11871 (maybe).

I removed all direct GTK calls. Hopefully this fixes the problem on wxGTK with GTK 3.
But I cannot test that since I cannot get CodeBlocks to compile on Mint 19 using GTK3.

I'd appreciate it if someone running GTK3 would try to compile MouseSap and report the actual errors.
