Installed Code::Blocks 17.12
Installed wxWidgets-3.0.4: Successfully ran the minimal project with mingw32-make.exe .
I created two builds of wxWidgets, wxBuild_debug  and wxBuild_release. Both are in the wxWidgets/lib folder.
../wxWidgets-3.0.4/lib/wxBuild_debug/
../wxWidgets-3.0.4/lib/wxBuild_release/

Before starting my test project in Code::Blocks clik Settings/Global Variables...
Current Set == default
Current variable == wx

Built-in fields:
base == ..\wxWidgets-3.0.4
include == ..\wxWidgets-3.0.4\include
lib == ..\wxWidgets-3.0.4\lib

Start Project:
New -> Project -> wxWidgets project
Welcome -> next
Select the wxWidgets version -> wxWidgets 3.0.x -> next
Select folder for project -> Title -> name
                                           Folder -> ..\Codeblocks\name
                                           Project Filename == name.cpb
                                           Resulting filename == ..\Code Blocks\name\name.cbp
next
Author -> next
Select GUI Builder
Preferred GUI Builder -> wxSmith
Application Type -> Frame Based
next
Location of wxWidgets
    I have tried ..\wxWidgets
    I am trying $(#wx)
next
Select Compiler to use
Compiler == GNU GCC Compiler (x64)
Create "Debug" configuration [Debug] ==  true
Output dir.: [bin\Debug\]
Objects output dir.: [obj\Debug\]

Create "Release" configuration [release] == true
Output dir.: [bin\Release\]
Objects output dir.: [obj\Release\]
next

Please select various configuration options
Use wxWidgets DLL == true
wxWidgets is build as monolithic library == true  : I did set MONOLITHIC ?=1 in my config.gcc
Enable unicode == false  : I did set UNICODE ?=0 in my config.gcc
Miscellaneous Settings
Create Empy Project == false
Create and use precompiled header (PCH) == true
Configuration [blank]
Configure Advanced Options == false
next

I got these settings from http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/WxSmith_tutorial:_Hello_world

Warning: A matching Debug configuration cannot be found in the wx Widgets directory you specified.
continue -> yes
Warning: A matching Release configuration cannot be found in the wxWidgets directory you specified.
coninue -> no

End attempt to create project.

If I browse for the directory that the wxWidgets base is I get the same results.

I know it is something stupid, that's coding/learning. Any help would be appreciated.






                                           

BlueHazzard:
How did you isntalled wxWidgets?
How exactly is your folder structure (until the dll of wxWidgets)?

Waingrove:
I installed wxWidgets-3.0.4 from both the installation executable and with the zip file. Both installations were installed in the main drive directory. Drive:\wxWidgets\..  is correct.

I built the libraries using mysys2 and mingw64.

This is my config file:

I built one debug and one release. I moved the folder from wxWidgets-3.0.4\build\msw\gcc_lib\
to wxWidgets-3.0.4\lib\ and renamed it to wxBuild_debug. And one called wxBuild_release.

As a test, just now I again built /samples/minimal/ successfully. 

So, that part seems to be working.

Waingrove:
I may have figured it out. I selected "Use wxWidgets DLL" and "wxWidgets is built as a monolithis library" .
Unchecking "Use wxWidgets DLL" allowed me to proceed.

Thx

Waingrove:
So what I think I know at this time is :
1) wxWidgets-3.0.4 is giving me a problem building the dll. It will build the library.
   And, I can create a project in C::B 17.12, using the monolithic library option.
2) I cannot build wxWidgets-3.0.4 with configure. It unexpected finds Borland Builder 6.
3) I'm running win7 x64 on a i5-2500k processor.
