2 Welcome to wxWidgets 2.6 for GTK+
3
4You have downloaded version 2.6 of the GTK+ port of the
5wxWidgets GUI library.
6
7wxWidgets no longer supports GTK 1.0.x (as did some early
8snapshots) and support for GTK 1.2.x will be phased out
9over time. Nearly all work is now done on GTK 2.0.x and
10quite a few of the enhancements of GTK+ 2.2.x and even
11GTK 2.4.x are used.
12
13More info about the wxWidgets project (including all the
14other ports and version of wxWidgets) can be found at the
15main wxWidgets homepage at:
16
17 http://www.wxwidgets.org
18
19Information on how to install can be found in the file
20INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
21many systems:
22
23 mkdir build_gtk
24 cd build_gtk
25 ../configure --with-gtk=2
26 make
27 su <type root password>
28 make install
29 ldconfig
30
31In order to use wxGTK with GTK 1.2 you need to use --with-gtk=1
32configure option. To build the library in Unicode mode (all
33strings will be wide strings and so on) you need to configure
34with GTK 2.0 and add --enable-unicode.
35
36Please note that it is strongly advised to build the library in
37a separate directory, as shown above, as it allows you to have
38different builds of it (for example with and without debug) in
39parallel. If you build in the source directory, don't forget to
40do "make clean" before changing the configuration!

43When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
44follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
45please send a bug report to one of our mailing list, INCLUDING
46A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR
47VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR
48WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried...
49
50Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
51bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list. These can
52be found at http://www.wxwidgets.org and more specifically at
53http://lists.wxwidgets.org.
54
55Do NOT send any comments directly to me.
