-Installing wxWindows 2.0
+Installing wxWindows 2.3
------------------------
+This is wxWindows 2.3 for Microsoft Windows 9x/ME, Windows NT,
+Windows 2000 and Windows XP. This is an unstable development release.
+
+Please note that the library naming conventions for VC++
+compilation have changed between 2.3.1 and 2.3.2. This means that
+you will need to change your application project files. See the
+relevant section below for details.
+
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you experience problems installing, please
-re-read this instructions and other related files (todo.txt,
-bugs.txt etc.) carefully before mailing wxwin-users or
-the author. Preferably, try to fix the problem first and
-then send a patch to the author.

Unarchiving
-----------
-If there is a setup program, run the setup program that comes with the Windows version.
-Do not install into a path that contains spaces. The installation program should set the
-WXWIN environment variable, which will be activated when your machine is rebooted.
-
-If there is no setup program, it will come as a series of .zip
-files:
-
-wx200gen.zip Generic source code and samples (required)
-wx200msw.zip Windows-specific source code and samples (required)
-wx200doc.zip Documentation source code (not required)
-wx200hlp.zip WinHelp documentation
-wx200pdf.zip Acrobat PDF documentation
-wx200htm.zip HTML documentation
-wx200vc.zip MS VC++ 5.0 project files
-wx200cw.zip Metrowerks CodeWarrior project files
+A setup program is provided (setup.exe) to automatically copy files to a
+directory on your hard disk. Do not install into a path that contains spaces.
+The installation program should set the WXWIN environment variable, which
+will be activated when your machine is rebooted. The setup
+program contains the following:
+
+- All common, generic and MSW-specific wxWindows source;
+- samples;
+- documentation in Windows Help format;
+- makefiles for most Windows compilers, plus BC++ and
+ VC++ IDE files;
+- JPEG library source;
+- TIFF library source;
+- Object Graphics Library;
+- Tex2RTF source;
+- Dialog Editor binary.
+
+Alternatively, you may unarchive the .zip form by hand:
+wxMSW-x.y.z.zip where x.y.z is the version number.
Unarchive the required files plus any optional documentation
files into a suitable directory such as c:\wx.
Other add-on packages are available from the wxWindows Web site, such as:
-- glcanvas.zip. Use OpenGL in a wxWindows window.
+- mmedia.zip. Audio, CD, video access for Windows and Linux.
- ogl3.zip. Object Graphics Library: build network diagrams, CASE tools etc.
- tex2rtf3.zip. Tex2RTF: create Windows Help, HTML, and Word RTF files from
the same document source.

Compilation
-----------
The following sections explain how to compile wxWindows with each supported
compiler.
-Visual C++ 4.0/5.0/6.0 compilation
-----------------------------------
-
-Using project files:
+Visual C++ 6.0 compilation
+---------------------------
-1. Unarchive wx200vc.zip, the VC++ 5 project makefiles.
-2. Open src/wxvc.dsp, set Debug or Release configuration, and
- compile. This will produce lib/wxvc.lib or lib/wxvc_debug.lib.
-3. Open a sample project file, choose a configuration, and compile.
- The project files don't use precompiled headers, to save
+Using project files (VC++ 6 only):
+
+1. Unarchive wxWindows-x.y.z-vc.zip, the VC++ 6 project
+ makefiles (already included in wxMSW-x.y.z.zip and the setup version).
+2. Open src/wxWindows.dsp, which has configurations for static
+ compilation or DLL compilation, and each of these available in
+ Unicode/ANSI and Debug/Release variations. Normally you'll use
+ a static linking ANSI configuration. Choose the Win32 Debug or
+ Win32 Release configuration for the wxWindows project, and compile.
+ Alternatively, use Batch Build to build more than one
+ configuration.
+ The following libraries will be produced depending on chosen
+ configuration:
+
+ wxmsw.lib wxmswd.lib ; ANSI Release/Debug
+ wxmswu.lib wxmswud.lib ; UNICODE Release/Debug
+ wxmsw23x.lib wxmsw23xd.lib ; ANSI DLL Release/Debug
+ wxmsw23xu.lib wxmsw23xud.lib ; UNICODE DLL Release/Debug
+
+ It will also produce similar variations on jpeg.lib, png.lib,
+ tiff.lib, zlib.lib, and regex.lib.
+3. Open a sample project file, choose a configuration such as
+ Win32 Debug using Build | Set Active Configuration..., and compile.
+ The project files don't use precompiled headers, to save disk
space, but you can switch PCH compiling on for greater speed.
+ NOTE: you may also use samples/samples.dsw to access all
+ sample projects without opening each workspace individually.
+ You can use the Batch Build facility to make several samples
+ at a time.
Using makefiles:
1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set.
-2. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type 'nmake -f makefile.vc' to
- make the wxWindows core library.
-3. Change directory to wx\samples and type 'nmake -f makefile.vc'
+2. If you do NOT have the TIFF or JPEG source code, please remove
+ the tiff and jpeg targets from the 'all' target in
+ src\msw\makefile.vc. Also ensure the settings in
+ include\wx\msw\setup.h specify not to use JPEG or TIFF.
+3. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type:
+
+ 'nmake -f makefile.vc'
+
+ to make the wxWindows core library with debug information
+ (wx\lib\wxd.lib), then
+
+ 'nmake -f makefile.vc cleanall FINAL=1'
+ 'nmake -f makefile.vc FINAL=1'
+
+ to make the wxWindows core library without debug information.
+4. Change directory to wx\samples and type 'nmake -f makefile.vc'
to make all the samples. You can also make them individually.
-To build the release version using makefiles, add FINAL=1 to your
-nmake invocation, both when building the library and for samples.
+Makefile notes:
-Use the 'clean' target to clean all objects, libraries and
-executables.
+ Use the 'cleanall' target to clean all objects, libraries and
+ executables.
+
+ To build the release version using makefiles, add FINAL=1 to your
+ nmake invocation, both when building the library and for samples.
+ You MUST use the 'cleanall' target (with FINAL=1 or FINAL=0)
+ before making a different configuration, because otherwise
+ object files used to build the previous configuration may be
+ used accidentally for the current configuation. You might see
+ this manifested in unexpected link errors or warnings. This problem
+ doesn't occur when using project files to build wxWindows.
+
+ To build Unicode versions of the libraries, add UNICODE=1
+ to the nmake invocation ( default is UNICODE=0 ).
+
+ Note that the wxWindows core library allows you to have debug
+ and release libraries available simultaneously, by compiling the
+ objects in different subdirectories, whereas samples must be
+ cleaned and re-made to build a different configuration.
To build the DLL version using makefiles:
1. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type 'nmake -f makefile.vc dll pch'
to make both a suitable DLL and import library, and to build a
suitable precompiled header file for compiling applications.
-2. Invoke a sample makefile with 'nmake -f makefile.vc WXUSINGDLL=1'.
+ See the previous section for library names.
+2. Invoke a sample makefile with 'nmake -f makefile.vc WXUSINGDLL=1'
+ (or edit src\makeprog.vc to set WXUSINGDLL to 1 for all
+ applications).
Note (1): if you wish to use templates, please edit
include\wx\msw\setup.h and set wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS to 0.
within wxWindows.
Note (2): libraries and applications generated with makefiles and
-project files are unlikely to be compatible, so use one method or
-the other.
-
-Visual C++ 1.5 compilation
---------------------------
+project files are now (hopefully) compatible where static libraries
+are concerned, but please exercise caution nevertheless and if
+possible, use one method or the other.
+
+Note (3): VC++ 5's optimization code seems to be broken and can
+cause both compile and run-time problems: this can be seen when
+deleting an object Dialog Editor, in Release mode with optimizations
+on. If in doubt, switch off optimisations, although this will result in much
+larger executables. It seems possible that the library can be created with
+strong optimization, so long as the application is not strongly
+optimized. For example, in wxWindows project, set to 'Minimum
+Size'. In Dialog Editor project, set to 'Customize: Favor Small
+Code' (and no others). This will then work.
+
+Note (4): some crash problems can be due to inconsistent compiler
+options. If strange/weird/impossible things start to happen please
+check (dumping IDE project file as makefile and doing text comparison
+if necessary) that the project settings, especially the list of defined
+symbols, struct packing, etc. are exactly the same for all items in
+the project. After this, delete everything (including PCH) and recompile.
+
+Note (5): to create your own IDE files, see the technical note on the
+wxWindows web site or CD-ROM, entitled "Compiling wxWindows
+applications in the VC++ IDE" (technical note docs/tech/tn0010.htm in the
+wxWindows distribution). You can also copy .dsp and .dsw
+files from an existing wxWindows sample and adapt them.
+
+Visual C++ 1.5 compilation (16-bit)
+-----------------------------------
+
+NOTE: this has not been tested recently and probably doesn't
+work.
1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set, and uses the FAT (short
name) form.
Use the 'clean' target to clean all objects, libraries and
executables.
-Borland C++ 4.5/5.0 compilation
+Borland C++ 4.5/5.0/5.5 compilation
-------------------------------
-1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set, and uses the FAT (short
- name) form if doing a 16-bit compile.
+Compiling using the makefiles:
+
+0. If downloading from CVS, copy include\wx\msw\setup0.h to
+ include\wx\setup.h.
+1. Make sure your WXWIN variable is set [e.g add
+ set WXWIN=c:\wxwindows
+ to your autoexec.bat file], and that it uses the FAT (short
+ name) form with no spaces.
+ Make sure your BCCDIR variable is set [e.g add
+ set BCCDIR=c:\progra~1\borland\bcc
+ to your autoexec.bat file], and that it points to the root directory of
+ your Borland C++ installation, and it uses the FAT (short
+ name) form with no spaces.
+ Reboot if needed for the changes to autoexec.bat to take effect.
2. Change directory to wx\src\msw. Type 'make -f makefile.b32' to
make the wxWindows core library. Ignore the warnings about
'XXX' not found in library.
-3. Change directory to a sample such as minimal, and type
+3. Change directory to a sample or demo such as samples\minimal, and type
'make -f makefile.b32'.
4. For release versions, recompile wxWindows and samples using
'make -f makefile.b32 clean'
'make -f makefile.b32 FINAL=1'
for the library and samples.
+5. To make and use wxWindows as a DLL, type
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 clean'
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 DLL=1'
+ and then for each sample,
+ 'make -f makefile.b32 WXUSINGDLL=1'
+ Please note that the samples have not been exhaustively tested
+ with this configuration.
-Note: the wxWindows library and (some) samples compile in 16-bit mode
+Note (1): the wxWindows library and (some) samples compile in 16-bit mode
using makefile.bcc, but at present the wxWindows resource system is switched
off in this mode. See issues.txt for details.
-Borland C++Builder compilation
+Note (2): unfortunately most samples won't link in 16-bit mode,
+because the automatic data segment exceeds 64K. The minimal
+sample links and runs, however.
+
+Note (3): the wxWindows makefiles assume byte structure alignment. Please
+make sure that your own project or makefile settings use the
+same alignment, or you could experience mysterious crashes. To
+change the alignment, add a suitable option to the $(CFG) target code
+in src/msw/makefile.b32.
+
+Note (4): if you get undefined _SQL... symbols at link time,
+either install odbc32.lib from the BC++ CD-ROM into your BC++ lib
+directory, or set wxUSE_ODBC to 0 in include\wx\msw\setup.h and
+recompile wxWindows. The same applies if compiling using the IDE.
+
+Note (5): BC++ 4.5 (not 5.0) trips up over jdmerge.c in the JPEG folder;
+you will therefore need to set wxUSE_LIBJPEG to 0 in setup.h and remove
+the jpeg target from src\msw\makefile.b32, and remove jpeg from
+src\makeprog.b32.
+
+Note (6): [obsolete]
+
+Note (7): If you wish debug messages to be sent to the console in
+debug mode, edit src\makeb32.env and change /aa to /Tpe in
+LINK_FLAGS.
+
+Compiling using the IDE files: [Borland C++ 5.0, not Cbuilder]
+
+1. Load src\bc32.ide (Release settings)
+2. Go to Options|Project... and specify the correct BC++ include and lib path for
+ your file structure.
+3. Press F9 to compile the wxWindows library.
+4. Load samples\bc32.ide.
+5. Go to Options|Project... and specify the correct BC++ include and lib path for
+ your file structure.
+6. Press F9 to compile the samples (build each node separately if
+ you prefer, by right clicking and choose Build Node).
+7. Run each sample: you may need to run from each sample's directory
+ since some (notably the wxHTML samples) look for files
+ relative to the working directory.
+
+Note (1): the samples project file contains a selection of
+samples, and not all samples. The remaining samples can be made
+with the makefiles. See also the demos hierarchy which doesn't
+have any BC++ project files yet.
+
+Note (2): to make the png, zlib, jpeg and tiff libraries (needed for
+some samples) you need to compile them with bc32.ide.
+
+Note (3): the debug version of the wxWindows library is about 40 MB, and the
+release version is around 5 MB.
+
+See also the file docs/tech/tn0007.txt for further instructions and details
+of how to create your own project files.
+
+** REMEMBER **
+
+In all of your wxWindows applications, your source code should include
+the following preprocessor directive:
+
+#ifdef __BORLANDC__
+#pragma hdrstop
+#endif
+
+(check the samples -- e.g., \wx2\samples\minimal\minimal.cpp -- for
+more details)
+
+Borland C++Builder IDE compilation
------------------------------
-C++Builder compilation is the same as for Borland C++ above.
+1. Build the wxWindows libraries using the Borland make utility as
+ specified in the section called "Borland C++ 4.5/5.0 compilation"
+ above. (C++ Builder includes a stand-alone C++ compiler. For example,
+ C++ Builder 4.0 comes with C++ 5.4.)
-Tested with C++Builder 1.0 and 3.0. Only makefiles are currently
-supplied.
+2. You can build samples using the makefiles as per the
+ instructions for BC++ above, or you can follow the instructions
+ in docs/tech/tn0004.htm or http://biolpc22.york.ac.uk/wx/bc/ide.html.
+ You can use the process_sample_bcb.bat command which is in
+ wxwindows\distrib\msw to generate a .mak or .bpr file for most of the
+ samples [mak for Cbuilder 1-3; bpr for v4]. Execute this in the sample
+ directory, passing the name of the cpp files on the command line.
-Watcom C++ 10.6 compilation
+Watcom C++ 10.6/11 compilation

make the wxWindows core library.
-3. Change directory to wx\samples\minimal and type 'wmake -f makefile.wat'
- to make this sample.
+3. Change directory to wx\samples\minimal and type 'wmake -f makefile.wat all'
+ to make this sample. Repeat for other samples of interest.
+
+Note (1): makewat.env uses the odbc32.lib supplied in wxWindows' lib\watcom
+directory. See the notes in that directory.
+Note (2): if variant.cpp is compiled with date/time class
+options, the linker gives up. So the date/time option is switched
+off for Watcom C++. Also, wxAutomationObject is not compiled with
+Watcom C++.
+Note (3): if Watcom can't read the precompiled header when
+building a sample, try deleting src\msw\watcom.pch and
+compiling the sample again.
Metrowerks CodeWarrior compilation

- Run it before compiling.
-
-- For Cygwin, make sure there's a \tmp directory on your
- Windows drive or bison will crash.
-
-- Edit wx/src/makeg95.env and search for MINGW32. Take note of
- the comments for adjusting settings to suit Cygwin or
- Mingw32. Basically, this is just a case of adding the __MINGW32__ symbol
- to OPTIONS for Mingw32, or removing it for Cygnus Cygwin.
- For Mingw32/EGCS, add both __MINGW32__ and __EGCS__.
- You may need to remove -loldnames from WINLIBS for Mingw32, or add it for
