-* The most simple case
------------------------
+wxWidgets 2.5 for GTK+ installation
+-----------------------------------
+
+IMPORTANT NOTE:
+
+ If you experience problems installing, please re-read these
+ instructions and other related files (todo.txt, bugs.txt and
+ osname.txt for your platform if it exists) carefully before
+ mailing wxwin-users or the author. Preferably, try to fix the
+ problem first and then send a patch to the author.
-If you compile wxWindows on Unix for the first time and don't
-like to read install instructions just do (in the base dir):
+ When sending bug reports tell us what version of wxWidgets you are
+ using (including the beta) and what compiler on what system. One
+ example: wxGTK 2.6.0, gcc 2.95.4, Redhat 6.2
-./configure
+* The simplest case
+-------------------
+
+If you compile wxWidgets on Linux for the first time and don't like to read
+install instructions just do (in the base dir):
+
+> mkdir buildgtk
+> cd buildgtk
+> ../configure --with-gtk
+> make
+> su <type root password>
+> make install
+> ldconfig
+> exit
+
+Afterwards you can continue with:
+
+> make
+> su <type root password>
+> make install
+> ldconfig
+> exit
+
+(If you don't do the 'make install' part, you can still
+use the libraries from the buildgtk directory, but they
+will not be available to other users.)
+
+If you want to remove wxWidgets on Unix you can do this:
+
+> su <type root password>
+> make uninstall
+> ldconfig
+> exit
+
+Note that by default, GTK+ 2 is used. GTK+ 1 can be specified
+with --disable-gtk2.
+
+* The Unicode case
+------------------
+
+wxGTK has support for the new version 2.0.X of GTK+ since version 2.4.0.
+This means that wxGTK apps can now make use Unicode as the underlying encoding
+for all text operations. This is a very fundamental change and will need time
+to stabilize, so be careful. After installing a recent version of GTK+
+2.0, do this
+
+> mkdir buildgtk
+> cd buildgtk
+> ../configure --with-gtk --enable-gtk2 --enable-unicode
+> make
+> su <type root password>
+> make install
+> ldconfig
+> exit
+
+If you are adventurous, you can install the FcConfig 2.0 package
+and the Pango library from CVS (or a very recent snapshot from
+the upcoming 1.2 series) and set do "export GDK_USE_XFT=1" so
+that the display as well as the printing code will use render
+using the same FreeType code even for Far Eastern encodings.
+
+Expect problems.
+
+* The expert case
+-----------------
+
+If you want to do some more serious cross-platform programming with wxWidgets,
+such as for GTK+ and Motif, you can now build two complete libraries and use
+them concurrently. To do this, create a separate directory for each build
+of wxWidgets - you may also want to create different versions of wxWidgets
+and test them concurrently. Most typically, this would be a version configured
+with --enable-debug and one without. Note, that only one build can
+currently be installed with 'make install', so you'd have to use local version of
+the library for that purpose.
+
+For building three versions (one GTK+, one Motif and a debug version of the GTK
+source) you'd do this:
+
+md buildmotif
+cd buildmotif
+../configure --with-motif
make
-su <type root password>
-make install
-ldconfig
-exit
+cd ..
+md buildgtk
+cd buildgtk
+../configure --with-gtk
+make
+cd ..
-* The most simple errors
-------------------------
+md buildgtkd
+cd buildgtkd
+../configure --with-gtk --enable-debug
+make
+cd ..
-configure reports, that you don't have GTK 1.X installed
-although you are certainly sure you have. Well, you have
-installed it, but you also have another version of the
-GTK installed, which you may need to removed including
-other versions of glib (and its headers).
+* The simplest errors
+---------------------
-You get errors during compilation. The reason is that you
-probably have a broken compiler, which includes almost
-everything that is called gcc. If there is just any way
-for you to use egcs, use egcs. We are sorry, but we cannot
-fix gcc for the moment.
+For any configure errors: please look at config.log file which was generated
+during configure run, it usually contains some useful information.
-* The most simple program
--------------------------
+configure reports, that you don't have GTK+ 1.2 installed although you are
+very sure you have. Well, you have installed it, but you also have another
+version of the GTK+ installed, which you may need to remove including other
+versions of glib (and its headers). Or maybe you installed it in non default
+location and configure can't find it there, so please check that your PATH
+variable includes the path to the correct gtk-config. Also check that your
+LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent variable contains the path to GTK+ libraries if
+they were installed in a non default location.
-Now create your super-application myfoo.app and compile anywhere
-with
+You get errors from make: please use GNU make instead of the native make
+program. Currently wxWidgets can be built only with GNU make, BSD make and
+Solaris make. Other versions might work or not (any which don't have VPATH
+support definitely won't).
-g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs` `wx-config --cflags` -o myfoo
+You get errors during compilation: The reason is that you probably have a
+broken compiler. GCC 2.8 and earlier versions and egcs are likely to cause
+problems due to incomplete support for C++ and optimisation bugs. Best to use
+GCC 2.95 or later.
+
+You get immediate segfault when starting any sample or application: This is
+either due to having compiled the library with different flags or options than
+your program - typically you might have the __WXDEBUG__ option set for the
+library but not for your program - or due to using a compiler with optimisation
+bugs.
+
+Linker complains about missing PROIO_yy_flex_alloc and similar symbols: you
+probably have an old version of flex, 2.5.4 is recommended.
+
+* The simplest program

+Now create your super-application myfoo.cpp and compile anywhere with
+
+g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs --cxxflags` -o myfoo

* Additional libraries
------------------------
+----------------------
-wxWindows/Gtk requires a thread library and X libraries
-known to work with threads. This is the case on all
-commercial Unix-Variants and all Linux-Versions that
-are based on glibc 2 except RedHat 5.0 which is broken
-in many aspects. As of writing this, these Linux
-distributions have correct glibc 2 support:
-
- - RedHat 5.1
- - Debian 2.0
- - Stampede
- - DLD 6.0
- - SuSE 6.0
-
-On IRIX you can also use SGI threads if Posix-Threads
-are not present. The SGI threads will be detected by
-configure automatically.
-
-You can enable thread support by running
-
-./configure "--with-threads"
-make clean

-* Create your configuration
------------------------------
-Usage:
- ./configure options
-
-If you want to use system's C and C++ compiler,
-set environment variables CC and CCC as
+* Building wxGTK on OS/2
+------------------------
- % setenv CC cc
- % setenv CCC CC
- % ./configure options
+Please send comments and question about the OS/2 installation
+to Stefan Neis <Stefan.Neis@t-online.de> and patches to
+the wxWidgets mailing list.
+
+In the following list, the version numbers indicate the configuration that
+was actually used by myself, newer version should cause no problems and
+even older ones are expected to work most of the time.
+
+You'll need OS/2 Warp (4.51) or eCS(1.0), X-Free86/2 (3.3.6 or newer),
+GTK+ (1.2.5 or newer), emx (0.9d fix 4), flex (2.5.4), yacc (1.8) or
+bison (1.25), a Unix like shell (pdksh-5.2.14 or ash), Autoconf (2.57),
+GNU file utilities (3.13), GNU text utilities (1.19),
+GNU shell utilites (1.12), m4 (1.4), sed (2.05), grep (2.0), Awk (3.0.3),
+GNU Make (3.75).
+
+Preferably, you should have Posix/2 installed and C(PLUS)_INCLUDE_PATH and
+LIBRARY_PATH set up accordingly, however, wxGTK will even work without it.
+Presence of Posix/2 will be auto-detected.
+
+Open an OS/2 prompt and switch to the directory above.
+Set MAKESHELL (and depending on your installation also INSTALL, for me
+it tends to try to use the system's tcpip\pcomos\install.exe which causes
+problems...) to a Unix like shell, e.g.
+SET MAKESHELL=ash
+
+Be warned that depending on the precise version of your make, the
+variable that needs to be set might be MAKE_SHELL instead of MAKESHELL.
+If you have a really deficient version of GNU make, it might even be
+necessary to set SHELL or even COMSPEC to a unix like shell as well.
+
+Notice that the delivered configure scripts are fully OS/2 aware, so you
+can simply run
+ ash -c "configure --with-gtk"
+and make and possibly make install as described above.
+
+* Building wxGTK on SGI
+-----------------------
Using the SGI native compilers, it is recommended that you
-also set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS before running configure. These
+also set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS before running configure. These
should be set to :
-CFLAGS="-mips3 -n32"

untested).
The SGI native compiler support has only been tested on Irix 6.5.
-to see all the options please use:
+* Create your configuration
+---------------------------
- ./configure --help
+Usage:
+ ./configure options
-The basic philosophy is that if you want to use different
-configurations, like a debug and a release version,
-or use the same source tree on different systems,
-you have only to change the environment variable OSTYPE.
-(Sadly this variable is not set by default on some systems
-in some shells - on SGI's for example). So you will have to
-set it there. This variable HAS to be set before starting
-configure, so that it knows which system it tries to
-configure for.

+set environment variables CC and CCC as

+
+It is recommended to build wxWidgets in another directory (maybe a
+subdirectory of your wxWidgets installation) as this allows you to
+have multiple configurations (for example, debug and release or GTK
+and Motif) simultaneously.
* General options
--------------------
+-----------------
+
+Given below are the commands to change the default behaviour,
+i.e. if it says "--disable-threads" it means that threads
+are enabled by default.
Normally, you won't have to choose a toolkit, because when
you download wxGTK, it will default to --with-gtk etc. But
-if you use all of our CVS repository you have to choose a
+if you use all of our CVS repository you have to choose a
toolkit. You must do this by running configure with either of:
- --with-gtk Use the GIMP ToolKit (GTK)
-
- --with-motif Use either Motif or Lesstif
- Configure will look for both.
+ --with-gtk Use the GIMP ToolKit (GTK+). Default.
+
+ --with-motif Use either Motif or Lesstif
+ Configure will look for both.
The following options handle the kind of library you want to build.
- --with-threads Compile with thread support.
+ --disable-threads Compile without thread support.
+
+ --disable-shared Do not create shared libraries, but
+ build static libraries instead.
+
+ --enable-monolithic Build wxWidgets as single library instead
+ of as several smaller libraries (which is
+ the default since wxWidgets 2.5.0).
+
+ --disable-optimise Do not optimise the code. Can
+ sometimes be useful for debugging
+ and is required on some architectures
+ such as Sun with gcc 2.8.X which
+ would otherwise produce segvs.
+
+ --enable-unicode Enable Unicode support.
+
+ --enable-gtk2 Compiling using GTK+ 2 (the default).
+
+ --enable-profile Add profiling info to the object
+ files. Currently broken, I think.
+
+ --enable-no_rtti Enable compilation without creation of
+ C++ RTTI information in object files.
+ This will speed-up compilation and reduce
+ binary size.
+
+ --enable-no_exceptions Enable compilation without creation of
+ C++ exception information in object files.
+ This will speed-up compilation and reduce
+ binary size. Also fewer crashes during the
+ actual compilation...
+
+ --enable-no_deps Enable compilation without creation of
+ dependency information.
+
+ --enable-permissive Enable compilation without checking for strict
+ ANSI conformance. Useful to prevent the build
+ dying with errors as soon as you compile with
+ Solaris' ANSI-defying headers.
- --without-shared Do not create shared libraries.
+ --enable-mem_tracing Add built-in memory tracing.
- --without-optimise Do not optimise the code.
+ --enable-dmalloc Use the dmalloc memory debugger.

-
- --with-debug_info Add debug info to object files and
- executables.
+ --enable-debug_info Add debug info to object files and
+ executables for use with debuggers
+ such as gdb (or its many frontends).
- --with-debug_flag Define __DEBUG__ and __WXDEBUG__ when
- compiling.
+ --enable-debug_flag Define __DEBUG__ and __WXDEBUG__ when
+ compiling. This enable wxWidgets' very
+ useful internal debugging tricks (such
+ as automatically reporting illegal calls)
+ to work. Note that program and library
+ must be compiled with the same debug
+ options.
+
+ --enable-debug Same as --enable-debug_info and
+ --enable-debug_flag together. Unless you have
+ some very specific needs, you should use this
+ option instead of --enable-debug_info/flag ones
+ separately.
* Feature Options
--------------------
+-----------------
+
+When producing an executable that is linked statically with wxGTK
+you'll be surprised at its immense size. This can sometimes be
+drastically reduced by removing features from wxWidgets that
+are not used in your program. The most relevant such features
+are
+
+ --with-odbc Enables ODBC code. This is disabled
+ by default because iODBC is under the
+ L-GPL license which is less liberal than
+ wxWidgets license.
+
+ --without-libpng Disables PNG image format code.
+
+ --without-libjpeg Disables JPEG image format code.
+
+ --without-libtiff Disables TIFF image format code.
+
+ --without-expat Disable XML classes based on Expat parser.
+
+ --disable-pnm Disables PNM image format code.
+
+ --disable-gif Disables GIF image format code.
+
+ --disable-pcx Disables PCX image format code.
+
+ --disable-iff Disables IFF image format code.
+
+ --disable-resources Disables the use of *.wxr type resources.
+
+ --disable-threads Disables threads. Will also disable sockets.
+
+ --disable-sockets Disables sockets.
+
+ --disable-dnd Disables Drag'n'Drop.
+
+ --disable-clipboard Disables Clipboard.
+
+ --disable-serial Disables object instance serialisation.
+
+ --disable-streams Disables the wxStream classes.
+
+ --disable-file Disables the wxFile class.
+
+ --disable-textfile Disables the wxTextFile class.
+
+ --disable-intl Disables the internationalisation.
+
+ --disable-validators Disables validators.
+
+ --disable-accel Disables accelerators support.
+
+Apart from disabling certain features you can very often "strip"
+the program of its debugging information resulting in a significant
+reduction in size.
+
+Please see the output of "./configure --help" for comprehensive list
+of all configurable options.
-As I don't yet care for binary size and target mainly at
-producing a shared library, wxWindows's configure system auto-
-matically enables all features, as long as they are already
-implemented. It is currently NOT possible to disable these
-options (in contrast to what configure tells you).
* Compiling
--------------
+-----------
The following must be done in the base directory (e.g. ~/wxGTK
or ~/wxWin or whatever)

* Creating a new Project
--------------------------
-There are two ways to create your own project:
-
1) The first way uses the installed libraries and header files
automatically using wx-config
-g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs` `wx-config --cflags` -o myfoo
+g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --cxxflags --libs` -o myfoo
Using this way, a make file for the minimal sample would look
like this
-CC = g++
+CC = gcc
minimal: minimal.o
- $(CC) -o minimal minimal.o `wx-config --libs`
+ $(CC) -o minimal minimal.o `wx-config --libs`
minimal.o: minimal.cpp mondrian.xpm
- $(CC) `wx-config --cflags` -c minimal.cpp -o minimal.o
+ $(CC) `wx-config --cxxflags` -c minimal.cpp -o minimal.o
-clean:
+clean:
rm -f *.o minimal
This is certain to become the standard way unless we decide
-to sitch to tmake.
+to stick to tmake.
-2) The other way creates a project within the source code
-directories of wxWindows: In this case I propose to put
-all contributed programs in the directory "/user", with a
-directory of its own.
+If your application uses only some of wxWidgets libraries, you can
+specify required libraries when running wx-config. For example,
+`wx-config --libs=html,core` will only output link command to link
+with libraries required by core GUI classes and wxHTML classes. See
+the manual for more information on the libraries.
-This directory then should include the following files:
+2) The other way creates a project within the source code
+directories of wxWidgets. For this endeavour, you'll need
+GNU autoconf version 2.14 and add an entry to your Makefile.in
+to the bottom of the configure.in script and run autoconf
+and configure before you can type make.
-Makefile (You can copy this one from any application in samples
- probably you will not need to edit this one. There is
- only one case where you might be interested in changing
- this file, but about that see later.)
-Makefile.in (This is the base application-Makefile template, from
- which the actual Makefile for each system is created.
- More about this later)
-
-put ALL your source code along with all the other stuff you need for
-your application in this directory (subdirectories are welcome).
-
-
-** Something about Makefiles
-------------------------------
-
-On general principle it should only contain ONE line, which is as follows:
-
- include ../../setup/general/makeapp
-
-this will include all the necessary definitions for creating the applications
-
-the only case where you might want to add another line is the following:
-this version of configure also supports creation of source archives of the
-application for easy distribution and updates to newer version of wxWindows.
- For this purpose all files in the application-directory will be put into
-a gziped tar-file in the full notation user/<your application>/*
-if you want to include some other files that you want "more visible", like
-a README.<yourApp> or a shell script for easy
-compilation/installation/distribution, then you have to add a variable
-
- DISTRIBUTE_ADDITIONAL=<your files>
-
-to the Makefile.
-So it would look like this:
-
- DISTRIBUTE_ADDITIONAL=README.TheApp
- include ../../setup/general/makeapp
-
-As we have already talked about distribution the command to create a
-distribution is:
-
- make distrib
-
-NOTE: If you are in the base directory of wxWindows it will create
-distribution packages for wxWindows as well as for all packages in the
-user directory.
- So if you want to create only packages for the files in user,
-then go to the directory other and type:
-
- make distrib
-
-or if you only want one application to be created then
-enter the specific directory and type there:
-make distrib
-
-All the distribution files will be put in the directory
-distrib at the base of the wxWindows-tree (where also configure
-and template.mak can be found).
-
-** Something about Makefile.in
---------------------------------
-
-As you have already seen with Makefile, configure makes a lot of use
-if the include statement in make to keep the Makefiles as simple as
-possible.
-
-So basically there are only variables to define and then a include command.
-Exception to this rule is if you have special rules for some stuff...
-These rules should go AFTER the include statement!!!
-
-so the general header looks like this:
-
- # wxWindows base directory
- WXBASEDIR=@WXBASEDIR@
- # set the OS type for compilation
- OS=@OS@
- # compile a library only
- RULE=bin
-
-and the general footer will look like this:
-
- # include the definitions now
- include ../../../template.mak
-
-the key variable is RULE, which defines what make should create
-in this directory.
-
-here are some examples:
-
- RULE description
- ===========================================================================
- bin creates a local binary (for a global binary prefix bin with g)
- additional variables needed:
- BIN_TARGET this gives the name of your application
- BIN_OBJ this gives the object files needed to
- link the application
- optional variables are:
- BIN_SRC this gives the list of c/c++ files for
- which dependencies will be checked.
- (This can be achieved with: make depend)
- BIN_LINK this gives commands for additional
- libraries needed to link the application
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- bin2 creates two local binaries (for global binaries prefix bin2 with g)
- in addition to the variables specified above you MUST also
- provide the same variables with BIN2_ instead of BIN_
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- lib creates a local library (for a global binary prefix bin with g)
- additional variables needed:
- LIB_TARGET this gives the name of your library
- LIB_OBJ this gives the object files needed for
- the library to be build.
- optional variables are:
- LIB_SRC this gives the list of c/c++ files for
- which dependencies will be checked.
- libbin and libgbin are also possible and will need in addition
- the variables from bin
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- gslib is similar to lib, but it creates a shared library if the system
- supports it.
- additional variables needed:
- LIB_MAJOR major number of the shared library
- LIB_MINOR minor number of the shared library
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- other additional variables:
-
- ADD_COMPILE define additional includes/defines that
- are needed to compile the object files
- (if you need to reference some directory
- utils - like wxGrid -, then please
- reference them with the variables defined
- in template.mak - e.g.: $(SRCDIR),$(UTILS),
