+Subject: Re: Compiling 2.0 wxWin Apps in the VC IDE
+Date: Wed, 20 May 1998 14:18:02 +0100
+
+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.
