wxWidgets 2.6 (MSW, GCC) installation instructions

<< < (14/29) > >>

pir:
Ooops! Just noticed that there are instructions for wxWidgets v2.6.1 on the wiki!! Just that it's 'hidden' under the 'Tutorials' section.

See http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Compiling_wxWidgets_2.6.1_to_develop_Code::Blocks_%28MSW%29

What are the "Settings->Compiler->Directories->Resource compiler" for?  What directories do I want to make available here?

Thank you.

rickg22:
The resource compiler directories are used to include your windows resources (bitmaps, icons, etc) in the executable. The wxWidgets for example, has a resource file including an icon. In any case, follow the rule:
If you don't know it, you don't need it :P

   I am answering my own question before I  post it in case someone else has a momentary lapse of intelligence and doesn't read the installation.  the the makefile.gcc doesn't work under msys.  It's for mingw using the windows command prompt.  :P

I currently have exactly the same problem. I tried in msys and normal command prompt, exactly the same error message. What am I doing wrong? I have mingw-4.1, msys 1.0.10, Windows XP, wxWidgets 2.6.2

rickg22:
the windows version of wxWidgets must _NOT_ be compiled inside MSYS. See the wiki for details.
