| | 12 | 1. What you can do with the IDE files |
| | 13 | ===================================== |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | There are two IDE files. src\bc32.ide should help you to |
| | 16 | create the wxWindows libraries from within the Ide of Borland's |
| | 17 | C++, v. 5.x. Note that this doesn't include debugging code: you |
| | 18 | need to change the settings if you wish to include debug |
| | 19 | information. Previously, bc32d.ide was supplied with debug |
| | 20 | settings, but this proved to time-consuming to maintain. |
| | 21 | |
| | 22 | 2. Where to install the files |
| | 23 | ============================= |
| | 24 | |
| | 25 | You should copy the files for the libraries into the |
| | 26 | src-directory of your wxWindows-Installation (e.g. C:\wxwin\src). |
| | 27 | And the other file for the samples should be copied into the |
| | 28 | samples-directory (e.g. C:\wxwin\samples). |
| | 29 | |
| | 30 | (If installing from setup.exe or wx2..._bc.zip the files |
| | 31 | will be installed into the appropriate directories |
| | 32 | automatically). |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | 3. How to modify them for your own needs |
| | 35 | ======================================== |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | If your wxWindows-Installation resides on the same drive as your |
| | 38 | Borland-Compiler and additionally the Borland-Installation is |
| | 39 | the default (e.g. C:\BC5) then there should be no need to change |
| | 40 | anything. Otherwise please change the path from within the ide |
| | 41 | (Options->project->directories). Because we use the |
| | 42 | $inherit-macro (Julian found the trick), this should work. |
| | 43 | |
| | 44 | To add a new sample to samples\bc32.ide, follow these steps: |
| | 45 | |
| | 46 | 1. Choose Project->New target... and type in e.g. |
| | 47 | samples\newsample. Press OK. |
| | 48 | 2. Static, no OWL, MFC or class libraries. Check Multithread |
| | 49 | on. Press OK. |
| | 50 | 3. Right-click on the new node, choose Add node... and add |
| | 51 | ..\lib\wx32.lib and ..\lib\xpm.lib. Add any other source |
| | 52 | files you require. |
| | 53 | 4. Right-click on the new node, choose Edit Local Options.. and |
| | 54 | add in Directories, specify the following: |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | Include: $inherit;.\newsample |
| | 57 | Library: $inherit; |
| | 58 | Source: .\newsample |
| | 59 | Intermediate: .\newsample |
| | 60 | Final: .\newsample |
| | 61 | |
| | 62 | 4. How to create IDE files for your own wxWindows-programs |
| | 63 | ========================================================== |
| | 64 | |
| | 65 | If you want to create an IDE file for your own wxWindows program, |
| | 66 | please follow these steps. |
| | 67 | |
| | 68 | 1. Create a new project from the menu file->new->project. |
| | 69 | 2. Deactivate all the standard-options, the only three things |
| | 70 | that should be activated are "static" for the libraries, |
| | 71 | the checkbox OLE (you can leave this checkbox unchecked, |
| | 72 | but then you have to add the library \bc5\lib\ole2w32.lib |
| | 73 | to your project), and the Multithread checkbox. |
| | 74 | 3. Add the include-path of wxWindows to the include-path in the |
| | 75 | options-dialog (options->project->directories->include). The |
| | 76 | result should be something like: |
| | 77 | path_of_my_program;\bc5\include;\wxwin2\include; |
| | 78 | 4. Add the libraries to the project. Open the project-view and |
| | 79 | activate your program. Then right-click and choose "add" and |
| | 80 | select the wxWindows library (e.g. \wxwin\lib\wx32.lib). Also |
| | 81 | add the xpm library. |
