Title: Error Building code blocks SVN - ld.exe: cannot find -lwxmsw28u
Post by: delphian on December 09, 2009, 12:10:59 am

I've just got the svn down to build code blocks , and when i try to complile the project i get a linker failure ( i assume LD is the linker part of GCC )

I've got both widgets 2.8.1 and 2.9.0 on my dev pc but am using 2.8.1 - am i missing a path the project needs

I want to get it working so i can start fixing some bugs i've got around 10 years commercial exp in dev work in Delphi and C++ since 1998. ( and a few years before that of my own programming).

I really want to get this working , as i have 2 flavours of wxWidgets going and i'm getting a nasty app crash when i save a form which i just put a menu on ( i tried with 2.8.1 & 2.9.0 32&64 bit - yes i got the 2.9.0 going on 64 bit... )

I've found the issue , my wxWidgets build isnt monolithic , so its not got one library file to use.

this is where the answer was.

thanks All.
