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: | |

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

88 | @ref page_libs_wxcore, @ref page_libs_wxbase. | |
89 | ||
90 | ||
91 | @section page_libs_wxnet wxNet | |
92 | ||
93 | Classes for network access: | |
94 | ||
95 | @li wxSocket classes (wxSocketClient, wxSocketServer and related classes) | |
96 | @li wxSocketOutputStream and wxSocketInputStream | |
97 | @li sockets-based IPC classes (wxTCPServer, wxTCPClient and wxTCPConnection) | |
98 | @li wxURL | |
99 | @li wxInternetFSHandler (a wxFileSystem handler) | |
100 | ||
101 | Requires @ref page_libs_wxbase. | |
