[Windows] precompiled wxWidgets in next release

<< < (7/7)

Thanks!
The 8.3 trick worked, I changed "C:\Program files\CodeBlocks\wxWidgets-2.8.8" in "C:\PROGRA~1\CodeBlocks\wxWidgets-2.8.8", and now I can compile everything.
I'll also try with new MinGW releases, to see if new windres.exe no longer have this bug.

Last thing, can you confirm me that the path for #wx global variable MUST be an absolute path, and that relative path don't work (I mean relative with respect to codeblocks folder, like saying "./wxWidgets-2.8.8" instead of "C:\Program files\CodeBlocks\wxWidgets-2.8.8"), because when I do so I get errors not only related to windres.exe, but also gcc.exe

That's true. Hence for the "childs" (like include etc...) you can use relative path's again - just like a recursion. This way you need to change only one path if you are on another platform.

For example, imagine a global variable, named "GV":
base path: C:\Whatever\MyLib
include path: $(#GV.base)\the_includes
lib path: $(#GV.base)\the_libs

I should hurry up and finish codepacks plugin  :D
