2 | Welcome to wxWidgets 2.6 for GTK+ | |
3 | ||
4 | You have downloaded version 2.6 of the GTK+ port of the | |
5 | wxWidgets GUI library. | |
6 | ||
7 | wxWidgets no longer supports GTK 1.0.x (as did some early | |
8 | snapshots) and support for GTK 1.2.x will be phased out | |
9 | over time. Nearly all work is now done on GTK 2.0.x and | |
10 | quite a few of the enhancements of GTK+ 2.2.x and even | |
11 | GTK 2.4.x are used. | |
12 | ||
13 | More info about the wxWidgets project (including all the | |
14 | other ports and version of wxWidgets) can be found at the | |
15 | main wxWidgets homepage at: | |
16 | ||
17 | http://www.wxwidgets.org | |
18 | ||
19 | Information on how to install can be found in the file | |
20 | INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on | |
21 | many 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 | ||
31 | In order to use wxGTK with GTK 1.2 you need to use --with-gtk=1 | |
32 | configure option. To build the library in Unicode mode (all | |
33 | strings will be wide strings and so on) you need to configure | |
34 | with GTK 2.0 and add --enable-unicode. | |
35 | ||
36 | Please note that it is strongly advised to build the library in | |
37 | a separate directory, as shown above, as it allows you to have | |
38 | different builds of it (for example with and without debug) in | |
39 | parallel. If you build in the source directory, don't forget to | |
40 | do "make clean" before changing the configuration! | |
41 | ||
42 | ||
43 | When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and | |
44 | follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success, | |
45 | please send a bug report to one of our mailing list, INCLUDING | |
46 | A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR | |
47 | VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR | |
48 | WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried... | |
49 | ||
50 | Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests, | |
51 | bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list. These can | |
52 | be found at http://www.wxwidgets.org and more specifically at | |
53 | http://lists.wxwidgets.org. | |
54 | ||
55 | Do NOT send any comments directly to me. | |
56 | ||
57 | wxWidgets doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It | |
58 | might crash your harddisk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't | |
59 | claim to be suitable for any special or general purpose. | |
