Title: cannot find -ldepslib
Post by: RageKing on January 20, 2009, 04:01:08 am

I followed the instructions to build the source code from the wiki, but I keep getting the error "cannot find -ldepslib".  Anyone know what this means?

Extra info needed; which instructions? URL Link to the ones you used.
What OS are you using?
GCC version might also be needed.

I am on Windows Vista 64-bit

gcc is version 4.3.2, and I am using MinGW

Looking at the directions; I just wish to make sure that you are building target "all" not target "compiler" the way the picture suggest is right.

If you still have the problem, you need to turn on "Full Compiler Logging"
Link to how to do that below.

Ok.  Thank you.  It looks like that helped somewhat.  I changed the target to "all".  But I am getting a different error now.  Here it is:

E:\CODEBL~1\trunk\src\src\RESOUR~1\RESOUR~1.RC|32|error: wx/msw/wx.rc: No such file or directory|
||preprocessing failed.|
||=== Build finished: 2 errors, 0 warnings ===|

I don't see an "msw" directory directly beneath where my "wx" is pointing.  Is that the problem?  I'm just wondering why it would be different in my case.

It should be under the "wx" sub-folder include.

The thread below has same issue as you do right now.
