ZekeDragon:
Alright, the new Code::Blocks works good, so MinGW was installed correctly.  I had some trouble getting my MSYS back, and I've all but given up trying to compile wxWidgets, FLTK, and Fox inside of Code::Blocks.  I'm going to use OpenWatcom since they've at least got documentation on that, and I'm a n00b and need documents.  I tried doing it direct from the makefiles, but it seems that those aren't working with my Cygwin, and since I can't get MSYS to work right, that's a no go.  After I've got those libraries compiled, I'll use C::B for the development of anything I make, obviously, since it's got an excellent interface and system running behind it, I just can't seem to get it to work for this situation...  Any documentation on these things would be most appreciated.

Precomp's would be lovely.

Why are you using Cygwin or MSys? All you need to compile wxWidgets and Code::Blocks is MinGW. Just make sure C:\MinGW\bin (or whatever directory you installed MinGW in) is in your PATH environment variable, open up a command prompt, and follow the directions here.

ZekeDragon:
I need Cygwin mostly for Fox Toolkit, since that's what I've got working for it thus far.  I am using MSys for the compilation of FLTK since it won't work in C::B.

TDragon:
In that case, make sure (as the directions I linked previously mention) that MSys and Cygwin aren't in the path when you compile wxWidgets, or chances are it'll fail.

Hope you get it working.

Hello,

Why you do not use the Dev-C++ packages of the libraries you need?

Best wishes,
Michael
