11 | @page page_libs Library List | |
12 | ||
13 | wxWidgets can be built either as a single large library (this is called a | |
14 | <em>monolithic build</em>) or as several smaller libraries | |
15 | (<em>multilib build</em>). Multilib build is the default. | |
16 | ||
17 | wxWidgets library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This | |
18 | diagram shows the dependencies between them: | |

63 | Please note that arrows indicate the "depends from" relation and that all blue | |
64 | libraries depend on the @ref page_libs_wxbase library (i.e. they are non-GUI | |
65 | libraries), and all green libraries depend on the @ref page_libs_wxcore library | |
66 | (i.e. they are GUI libraries). | |
67 | ||
68 | ||
69 | @section page_libs_wxbase wxBase | |
70 | ||
71 | Every wxWidgets application must link against this library. It contains | |
72 | mandatory classes that any wxWidgets code depends on (e.g. wxString) and | |
73 | portability classes that abstract differences between platforms. wxBase can be | |
74 | used to develop console mode applications, it does not require any GUI | |
75 | libraries or running X Window System on Unix. | |
76 | ||
77 | ||
78 | @section page_libs_wxcore wxCore | |
79 | ||
80 | Basic GUI classes such as GDI classes or controls are in this library. All | |
81 | wxWidgets GUI applications must link against this library, only console mode | |
82 | applications don't. | |
83 | ||
84 | Requires @ref page_libs_wxbase. | |
85 | ||
