I have a problem using wxWidgets, and linking the library...
I'm using C::B 1.0 rc2, Windows XP pro, MinGW compiler.
I've installed wxWidgets on D:\C++\wx
I've added all .a files to my Link Libraries. Also WX_DIR is set.
This is my full compile log:
Project : Lucky Bot
Compiler : GNU GCC Compiler (called directly)
Directory : D:\C++\Projects\LuckyBot\

Does anybody know how I can fix this?

You have made a very "simply" mistake (once you know you'll never do it again... ;-)):
You shouold not link all the libs that are available to your application. The only thing your project "complains" about: "cannot find -lwxmsw". This you can resolve easily by adding the path to your wxWidgets libs to the linker path's of your project. Then remove all "direct linkings" of libraries -> all that begin with "D:\C++\wx\lib\gcc_lib\lib[...]". The usual way is to add them as e.g. "wxmsw26" and add the path "D:\C++\wx\lib\gcc_lib" to your linker directories. Please notice the "26" which was the only thing missing in yur configuration.
With regards, Morten.

Ok thanks! I got it working now. :)
But one question, does it now work on all platforms, without making any changes to the linkers?

No it won't work on all platforms without changing anything....

How can I make it work with e.g. Linux then?
