If you are using Cygwin or MinGW together with the MSYS environment, you
can build the library using configure (see "Unix ports" and
"Windows using configure" below). You can also
-build wxWindows without configure using native makefile, but only with
+build wxWidgets without configure using native makefile, but only with
MinGW. Using Cygwin together with Windows makefile is no longer supported.
If building with MinGW without configure:

You can customize many things in the build process, detailed description is

III) Windows using configure

-wxWindows can be built on Windows using MSYS (see
+wxWidgets can be built on Windows using MSYS (see
http://www.mingw.org/), which is a POSIX build environment
for Windows. With MSYS you can just ./configure && make (see also VII,
Unix->Windows cross-compiling using configure).
----------------------------------------
Refer to the readme.txt and install.txt files in docs/mac to build
-wxWindows under Classic Mac OS using CodeWarrior.

If you are checking out the CVS sources using cvs under Mac OS X and
compiling under Classic Mac OS:
You might want to build both Unix and Windows binaries in the same source
tree; to do this make subdirs for each e.g. unix and win32. If you've

otherwise configure will get confused. (In any case, read the section 'Unix
-using configure' and make sure you're able to build a native wxWindows

library; cross-compiling errors can be pretty obscure and you'll want to be
sure that your configure setup is basically sound.)
