-First the apology: the description below is for wx1.68
-not for wx2.0 - sorry if I confused everybody.
-
-Anyway, third time lucky I hope! The settings for
-VC++ 5.0, wx2.0 beta 8, NT Workstation 4.0 sp3
-are:
-
-In project / settings / C/C++:
-Add "__WINDOWS__" to the pre-processor definitions
-Add "{wx}\include" to the additional include directories
-where {wx} is the directory in which wx is installed
-
-In project / settings / Resources:
-add "{wx}\include" to the additional resource include directories
-
-In project / settings / Link:
-Add "wx.lib comctl32.lib dummy.obj" to the Object/Library modules
-
-Add "libcd.lib,libcid.lib" to ignore libraries (under the "input" category)
-
-Add "{wx}\lib,{wx}\src\msw" to the additional library path
-
-I have tested these settings on samples/minimal and can
-build exes which can be debugged using Developer Studio.
-
-I hope I've finally answered the original question. (Next time
-I'll read the question more carefully!).
-
-Regards,
-Chris

-Original message (settings for wx1.68c):
-) Try the following (tested with VC++ 5 on NT4):
-)
-) Create a new Win32 Application project and insert the source files
-) (including .rc files).
-)
-) In project / settings / C/C++:
-) Add wx_msw to the pre-processor definitions
-) add {wx}\include\base,{wx}\include\msw to the additional include
-directories
-) where {wx} is the directory in which wx is installed
-)
-) In project / settings / Resources:
-) add {wx}\include\msw;{wx}\contrib\fafa to the additional resource include
-) directories
-)
-) In project / settings / Link:
-) Add comctl32.lib wx.lib dummy.obj ctl3d32.lib to the Object/Library modules
-)
-) Add libc to ignore libraries (under the "input" category)
-)
-) Add {wx}\lib,{wx}\src\msw to the additional library path
-)
-) These settings are for a debug build. You can use the same settings for
-) a release build apart from ignoring libc.
