If you compile wxWindows on Linux for the first time and don't like to read
install instructions just do (in the base dir):
-./configure
-make
-su <type root password>
-make install
-ldconfig
-exit
-
-On all other Unices (maybe except *BSD), shared libraries are not supported
-out of the box due to the utter stupidity of libtool, so you'll have to do
-this instead:
+> ./configure --with-gtk
+> make
+> su <type root password>
+> make install
+> ldconfig
+> exit
-./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
-make
-su <type root password>
-make install
-ldconfig
-exit
+Afterwards you can continue with
-You may also want to try to edit the wrongly created libtool script
-in your build directory, if you need shared libraries on Unix. The
-wrong entries are something like
- archive_cmds="\$LD -shared ....
- archive_expsym_cmds="\$LD -shared ....
-which should be something like
- archive_cmds="\$CC -shared ....
- archive_expsym_cmds="\$CC -shared ....
+> make
+> su <type root password>
+> make install
+> ldconfig
+> exit
If you want to remove wxWindows on Unix you can do this:
-su <type root password>
-make uninstall
-ldconfig
-exit
+> su <type root password>
+> make uninstall
+> ldconfig
+> exit
* The expert case

* The most simple errors
------------------------
-configure reports, that you don't have GTK 1.X installed although you are
+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). Also, look for the PATH variable and check
Now create your super-application myfoo.app and compile anywhere with
-g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs --cflags` -o myfoo
+gcc myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs --cflags` -o myfoo
* General
-----------------------
-----------------------
wxWindows/GTK requires the GTK+ library to be installed on your system. It has to
-be a stable version, preferebly version 1.2.3. You can use GTK 1.0 in connection
-with wxWindows, albeit without Drag'n'Drop. wxWindows does work with the 1.1.X
-versions of the GTK+ library.
+be a stable version, preferebly version 1.2.3.
You can get the newest version of the GTK+ from the GTK homepage at:
http://www.gtk.org
-We also mirror GTK+ 1.0.6 at my ftp site. You'll find information about downloading

* Building wxGTK on OS/2
The following options handle the kind of library you want to build.
- --disable-threads Compile without thread support. Threads
- support is also required for the
- socket code to work.
+ --disable-threads Compile without thread support.
--disable-shared Do not create shared libraries.
+ --enable-static Create static libraries.
+
--disable-optimise Do not optimise the code. Can
sometimes be useful for debugging
and is required on some architectures
binary size. Also fewer crashes during the
actual compilation...
- --enable-mem_tracing Add built-in memory tracing.
+ --enable-no_deps Enable compilation without creation of
+ dependency information.
+
+ --enable-permissive Enable compilation without creation of
+ giving erros as soon as you compile with
+ Solaris' ANSI-defying headers...
+
+ --enable-mem_tracing Add built-in memory tracing.
--enable-dmalloc Use the dmalloc memory debugger.

--without-libjpeg Disables JPEG image format code.
-{ --without-odbc Disables ODBC code. Not yet. }
+ --disable-pnm Disables PNM image format code.
+
+ --disable-gif Disables GIF image format code.
+
+ --disable-pcx Disables PCX image format code.
+
+ --without-odbc Disables ODBC code.
--disable-resources Disables the use of *.wxr type
resources.
2) The other way creates a project within the source code
directories of wxWindows. For this endeavour, you'll need
-the usual number of GNU tools, at least
-
-GNU automake version 1.4
-GNU autoheader version 2.14
-GNU autoconf version 2.14
-GNU libtool version 1.3
-
-and quite possibly
-
-GNU make
-GNU C++
-
-and if you have all this then you probably know enough to
-go ahead yourself :-)
+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.
