-Metrowerks CodeWarrior Compilation
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-** NOTE: We don't use Metrowerks compiler any more and so depend on
-** your contributions to keep it up to date. It is possible that
-** the project files mentioned below are out of date due to recently
-** added files, please add them manually if you get linking errors.
-** The authoritative list of files is in build/bakefiles/files.bkl
-
-1. CodeWarrior Pro 7 project files in XML format are already
- included in wxMSW-2.8.x.zip and the setup version.
-
-2. Review the file include\wx\msw\setup.h (or include\wx\msw\setup0.h if
- you are working from the SVN version) to make sure the settings reflect
- what you want. If you aren't sure, leave it alone and go with the
- default settings. A few notes:
- - Don't use wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS: it doesn't mix well with MSL
- - wxUSE_GLOBAL_MEMORY_OPERATORS works, but memory leak reports
- will be rather confusing due to interactions with the MSL ANSI
- and runtime libs.
-
-3. The project file to build the Win32 wxWidgets libraries relies on the
- Batch File Runner plug-in. This plug-in is not installed as part of
- a normal CW7 installation. However, you can find this plug-in on the
- CodeWarrior Reference CD, in the Thrill Seekers folder; it's called the
- "Batch File Post Linker".
-
-4. If you choose not to install the Batch File Runner plug-in, then you
- need to do the following by hand:
- (1) Create the directories lib\cw7msw\include\wx and copy the file
- include\wx\msw\setup.h (or include\wx\msw\setup0.h if you are
- working from the SVN version) to lib\cw7msw\include\wx\setup.h
- (2) Create the directories lib\cw7mswd\include\wx and copy the file
- include\wx\msw\setup.h (or include\wx\msw\setup0.h if you are
- working from the SVN version) to lib\cw7mswd\include\wx\setup.h
-
-5. Import src\wxWidgetsW7.xml to create the project file wxWidgetsW7.mcp.
- Store this project file in directory src. You may get warnings about
- not being able to find certain project paths; ignore these warnings, the
- appropriate paths will be created during the build by the Batch File Runner.
-
-6. Choose the wxlib Win32 debug or wxlib Win32 Release target and build. You
- will get some warnings about hidden virtual functions, illegal conversions
- from const pointers to pointers, etc., all of which you can safely ignore.
- ***Note: if you get errors that the compiler can't find "wx/setup.h", just
- stop the build and build again. These errors occur because sometimes the
- compiler starts doing its thing before the copying of setup.h has completed.
-
-7. The following libraries will be produced depending on chosen
- target:
- - wx_x86.lib ANSI Release (static)
- - wx_x86_d.lib ANSI Debug (static)
-
-8. Sorry, I haven't had time yet to create and test Unicode or DLL versions.
- Volunteers for this are welcome (as neither DLLs nor Unicode builds are
- big priorities for me ;).
-
-9. CodeWarrior Pro7 project files (in XML format) are also provided for some
- of the samples. In particular, there are project files for the minimal,
- controls, dialogs, dnd, nd docview samples. You can use these project
- files as templates for the other samples and for your own projects.
- - For example, to make a project file for the "grid" sample,
- just copy the project file for the "minimal" sample, minimalW7.mcp
- (made by importing minimalW7.xml into CodeWarrior), into the
- sample/grid directory, calling it gridW7.mcp. Open
- newgridW7.mcp and revise the project by deleting the files
- minimal.rc and minimal.cpp and adding the files griddemo.rc and
- griddemo.cpp. Build and run....
