+If you have tested wxWindows on a platform not mentioned here, please tell us about your experience on our mailing list! +We would especially like to have information about compiling wxGTK on other Unix variants, such as IRIX, DG-UX, +other flavours of BSD, ... Please note that you will generally need GNU make +(also known as gmake) to compile wxWindows, native make programs +often don't work. +

wxWindows 2 Platforms
Platform Compiler Status Tested by Remarks
Win32
(Win 9x/NT/2K)
Visual C++ 4.2/5.x/6.0OkVZ, JSProject files are provided for all versions except 4.2
Borland C++ 5.0Ok
Also works with free command line Borland C++ 5.5
Mingw32OkGRG, VZCross compilation from Linux works as well
+ Version 2.95.2 recommended, otherwise some (included) patches must be applied
+ Memory debugging code doesn't seem to work well
CygwinOkStephane Junique
Andrea Venturoli
tested under NT 4, cross-compiling for mingw also works
Watcom C++ 10AlmostJSTested with 10.6: works, but wxImage seems to be broken
no support for JPEG, TIFF or OpenGL
Watcom C++ 11OkMarkus NeiferTested with 11.0b under win95
Open Watcom 1.0OkChris ElliottTested with 1.0 under W2K(?)
Digital Mars (was Symantec C++)OkChris ElliottTested with 8.34beta
Win64
(Windows XP/2003)
Visual C++ 7.1No Some minor corrections not done yet but will be in time for 2.6.0...
Win16
(Windows 3.1)
Visual C++ 1.52Ok
Some features are missing (OLE related classes, threads, ...)
+ Borland C++ can't cope with ODBC, resources and new wxGrid class.
+ Last working version is wxWindows 2.2.7, + support for Win16 has been abandoned in 2.4.x. + and all traces of Win16 code were removed + after cvs BEFORE_WIN16_REMOVAL tag
Borland C++ 4.0/5.0OkJS
Linux x86wxGTK with gcc 2.7.2Unknown
Might work, but nobody uses it any more
wxGTK with gcc 2.95--3.3OkVZ, RR
wxMotifOk

with OpenMotif

All BSD systems tests are for wxGTK using gcc.
FreeBSDall versions between 3.2 and 5.1 x86OkVZ
NetBSD1.6, AlphaOkVZ
OpenBSD3.1, AlphaOkVZSome problems with shared libraries, ok with static ones
SolariswxMotif with Sun CC 4.2OkVZThread support must be disabled on system with not MT-safe X11
wxMotif with gccOk

wxGTK with Sun CC 4.2Ok 
wxGTK with gccOk

wxGTK with Sun CC 5.0 and 6.1 (Solaris 7 and 8)OkJiri MracekYou have to edit line 2079 in glib.h to fix GTK+ error
wxGTK 2.5.1 with Sun CC 6.2 (Solaris 6 and 8)OkCarl GodkinUsing GNU make
AIXwxGTK 2.2.9 with gcc 3.0.4OkIan BrownShared library building doesn't work, use --disable-shared
wxGTK 2.3.3 with xlC (AIX 4.3.2)OkIrvin ProbstBoth static and shared wxGTK libraries work, but only with static GTK+ and GLib
wxMotif with xlC 3.1.4.0 (AIX 4.2)OkBernhard EckSome problems with OpenGL and native X server
wxX11 2.4.2 with xlC 6 (AIX 5.1)OkSwengtooIn 2.4.2 you need to remove parentheses from the configure line containing AIX_CXX_LD; you should also use GNU make
HP-UX
HP-UX 10.20 wxGTK with HP CC A.10.22
or HP aCC B3910B A.01.18
OkStaf Verhaegenyou need to add -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE to CFLAGS
HP-UX 10.20 wxGTK with gccOkJulian Albo Garcia
HP-UX 11i v1 PA-RISC, wxMotif 2.5.4, tried aCC A.03.57 and g++ 3.4.2OkIan, MikeFor a 32-bit PA-RISC build, if you want to use SHLIB_PATH to make it easier to use + wxWidgets without installing it, then add LDFLAGS=-Wl,+s
+ If you want to compile the test suite then aCC A.03.57 requires CXX='aCC -AA'
+ aCC can also be used as the C compiler instead of cc by adding CC='aCC -Ae' +
HP-UX 11i v2 IA64, wxMotif 2.5.4, aCC A.06.00OkMike
IRIX
+ Note that all entries use MIPSPro 7.3 compiler on IRIX 6.5 with -mips3 -n32 flags if not mentioned otherwise. + Also note that you need to set LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH under IRIX to run wxWindows programs. +
wxGTK 2.2OkIanYou may need to use --disable-catch_segvs if you get compiler error in utilsunx.cpp
wxGTK 2.5OkCarl Godkin
wxMotifOkDavid MarshallOn IRIX 6.5.6 (Indigo2, 64bit), with SGI Motif 1.2

SCO UnixWarewxGTK with gccOkWilliam SuetholzUnixWare 2.1.3 with UnixWare 7 compatibility PTF
DEC OSF/1wxGTK with gccOkFabrice DidierjeanOSF1 4.0 on Dec Alpha
+ you may need to run configure with --host=alpha-dec-osf switch
OS/2
wxOS2-2.4.x with VAC++ 3.0AlmostDWSupport for this out-dated compiler has been given up for 2.5
wxOS2 with EMXAlmostSN
wxOS2 with EMX+gcc 3.2.1AlmostDave Parsons
Innotek gcc 3.2.2NoDWThis compilers uses an object format incompatible with current X11 libraries, so forget about wxGTK/wxMotif/wxX11. CVS now supports building wxOS2, but linking does not yet work OOTB.
Open Watcom 1.0/1.1No
Again, object format is incompatible with X11 libs, so forget about wxGTK/wxMotif/wxX11. We would need somebody having enough time to dig into the build system and find out how to adapt OpenWatcom's makefiles (or rather bakefiles) for Windows to OS/2.
