Post by: tomay3000 on November 07, 2016, 09:46:42 am
Hello,
I have manually built C::B under linux mint cinnamon x64 with wxwidgets 3.1.0, I always get the error message on start up of C::B that says it can't load wxsmith!
How to resolve this ?

The attached file is a screenshot of the error message


thank you for your understanding.

How did you build it? Using configure/make or CB Project?

In a few days, I might be able to try to build using Configure/Make on Debian testing and see if it works for me.

I have gotten the error you got on Debian; but, only for self compiled CB Plugins.
Turned out CB keeps self compiled CB Plugins built and installed via the CB GUI in a single folder.
And, if the self compiled CB Plugins use a different wxWidgets version then the CB Main Program; then, I got that error.
I was trying to use CB built with wxWidgets 2.8 on Debian. And, that folder had a self compiled plugin built using wxWidgets 3.0.

Do you have older installations of Code::Blocks on your systems ?
Or parts of it ?
Did the configure-sript correctly recognize wx3.1 (look at config.log) ?
Have there been any errors or warnigs ?

yes I have previously installed C::B from a .deb file (that one used wx2.8) & uninstalled it before I compile my own.
I have seen that the configure-sript correctly recognized wx3.1 in the output screen

EDIT:
It started working now, though I havn't touched anything in the system except for browsing the directory of the lib files
The system has refreshed itself! Very weird !!!
