Problem with linker

(1/3) > >>

sNapik:
Using new MinGW compiler I built wxWidgets accordint to tutorials found on wiki. Trying to compile a window made in wxSmith I got this message:

ld.exe             cannot find -lwxmsw28u

I searched forum and find some similar topics, but anything mentioned there didnt work. I am sure, that I have compiled wxWidgets into single dll. Browsing that older topisc I tryed various black magic with variables, but nothing happened. My dll has name wxmsw28u_gcc_custom.dll. Could somebody tell me what need change? I appreciate any help or descripsion how this linking works.

On the menu "Project" click "Build Options" then select the tab "Search directories", inside this tab is another one with the tab "Linker" here you should add the directory where the wxWidgets library's reside in.

Usually: C:\wxWidgets-2.8.0\lib and depending on your compilation the libraries are created in a folder like gcc or something like that inside the lib folder. Just browse this folders to find the libwxmsw28u.a or lib_wxmsw28u.a, a similar filename jeje. :) good luck.

You can define the global variable wx too.

Once this worked, but aplication didnt start corectly. Some error during initialization ocured. Then I opened new project a set everything same way like last time but got same mesage like yesterday. Only library has name lwxmsw28ud. Im realy confused now. I gues it was caused by checking use wx dll button, but this settin stay remembered when I overwrite project with another same name. Project with another name works again.

maxx.t:
The d at the end of the lib name means that you are making a debug build of your program. Look at Project -> Build options. I guess that in the left pane you see your project with two targets, a release and a debug target. The necessary libraries for the targets can be seen in the tab Linker settings, The linker search path in the tab Search directories -> Linker. Please check whether the desired lib is in the path the linker is looking for.

Have you also build wxWidgets with option BUILD=debug?

sNapik:
Thx.....It seem to compile well. But another problem occurred. Everithing is build and linked without any errors or warnings, but when trying to run aplication I get an error mesage and proces is terminated with this code:

Process terminated with status -1073741819 (0 minutes, 13 seconds)

Error mesage looks like this:


I dont know how is exact translation.....Something like: Corect initialization of the aplication (0xc0000005) failed.......

Could somebody help me? Is problem in CodeBlocks, wxWidgets or compiler?
