compile c++ wxWidgets using Cygwin

Question

I've downloaded wxWidgets package using Cygwin setup-x86_64 and NOT from wxWidgets site.

I tried to compile the code from this site: http://docs.wxwidgets.org/stable/overview_helloworld.html

Still, I am receiving these errors

fatal error: 'wx/wxprec.h' file not found

fatal error: 'wx/wx.h' file

What should I do to get this package to work?

Answer 1

According to the list of files in the package, it seems that only /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/wx-config-3.0 is being installed by this package and not wx-config itself (unless it's created dynamically during installation?). If this is indeed the case, you will need to use wx-config-3.0 --cxxflags etc on your command line to compile using it.

Notice that you also need to use MinGW cross-compiler, ie i686-w64-mingw32-g++ or x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ , depending on your target architecture, and not Cygwin g++ .

Answer 2

您是否添加了wx-config标志？

g++ $(wx-config --cxxflags) -o out *.cpp $(wx-config --libs)
