- GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
- Version 2, June 1991
-
- Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
- 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
-[This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is
- numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]
-
- Preamble
-
- The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
-freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
-Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
-free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
-
- This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some
-specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
-other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
-your libraries, too.
-
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
-price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
-this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
-if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
-in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
-
- To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
-anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
-These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
-you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it.
-
- For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
-or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
-you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
-code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide
-complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
-with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
-it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
-
- Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright
-the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal
-permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
-
- Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain
-that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
-library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we
-want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original
-version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on
-the original authors' reputations.
-\f
- Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
-patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
-software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
-transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
-we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
-free use or not licensed at all.
-
- Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
-GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
-license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
-designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary
-one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is
-the same as in the ordinary license.
-
- The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that
-they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a
-program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without
-changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is
-analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in
-a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a
-derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License
-treats it as such.
-
- Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General
-Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software
-sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We
-concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
-
- However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
-users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
-libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to
-permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
-preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
-libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve
-this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards
-changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this
-will lead to faster development of free libraries.
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
-"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
-former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
-works together with the library.
-
- Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
-General Public License rather than by this special one.
-\f
- GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
-
- 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
-contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
-party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
-General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
-addressed as "you".
-
- A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
-prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
-(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
-
- The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
-which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
-Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
-copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
-portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
-straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
-included without limitation in the term "modification".)
-
- "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
-making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
-all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
-interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
-and installation of the library.
-
- Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
-covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
-running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
-such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
-on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
-writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
-and what the program that uses the Library does.
-
- 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
-complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
-you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
-appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
-all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
-warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
-Library.
-
- You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
-and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
-fee.
-\f
- 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
-of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
-distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
-above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
-
- b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
- stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
-
- c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
- charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
-
- d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
- table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
- the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
- is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
- in the event an application does not supply such function or
- table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
- its purpose remains meaningful.
-
- (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
- a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
- application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
- application-supplied function or table used by this function must
- be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
- root function must still compute square roots.)
-
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
-and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
-sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
-on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
-this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
-entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
-it.
-
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
-collective works based on the Library.
-
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
-with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
-a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
-the scope of this License.
-
- 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
-License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
-this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
-that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
-instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
-ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
-that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
-these notices.
-\f
- Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
-that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
-subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
-
- This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
-the Library into a program that is not a library.
-
- 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
-derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
-under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
-it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
-must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
-medium customarily used for software interchange.
-
- If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
-from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
-source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
-distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
-compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
-
- 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
-Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
-linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
-work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
-therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
-
- However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
-creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
-contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
-library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
-Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
-
- When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
-that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
-derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
-Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
-linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
-threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
-
- If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
-structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
-functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
-file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
-work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
-Library will still fall under Section 6.)
-
- Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
-distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
-Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
-whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
-\f
- 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or
-link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
-work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
-under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
-modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
-engineering for debugging such modifications.
-
- You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
-Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
-this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
-during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
-copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
-directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
-of these things:
-
- a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
- machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
- changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
- Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
- with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
- uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
- user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
- executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
- that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
- Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
- to use the modified definitions.)
-
- b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
- least three years, to give the same user the materials
- specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
- than the cost of performing this distribution.
-
- c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
- from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
- specified materials from the same place.
-
- d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
- materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
-
- For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
-Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
-reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
-the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
-distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
-components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
-which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
-the executable.
-
- It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
-restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
-accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
-use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
-distribute.
-\f
- 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
-Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
-facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
-library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
-the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
-permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
-
- a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
- based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
- facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
- Sections above.
-
- b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
- that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
- where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
-
- 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
-the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
-attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
-distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
-rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
-or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
-terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
-
- 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
-signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
-distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
-prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
-modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
-Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
-all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
-the Library or works based on it.
-
- 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
-Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
-original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
-subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
-restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
-You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
-this License.
-\f
- 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
-may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
-license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
-all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
-the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
-refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
-
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
-particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
-and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
-
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
-integrity of the free software distribution system which is
-implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
-generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
-through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
-system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
-to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
-impose that choice.
-
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
-be a consequence of the rest of this License.
-
- 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
-certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
-original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
-an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
-so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
-excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
-written in the body of this License.
-
- 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
-versions of the Library General Public License from time to time.
-Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
-but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
-
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
-"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
-conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
-the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
-license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
-the Free Software Foundation.
-\f
- 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
-programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
-write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
-copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
-Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
-decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
-of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
-and reuse of software generally.
-
- NO WARRANTY
-
- 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
-WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
-EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
-OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
-KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
-IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
-LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
-THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
- 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
-WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
-AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
-FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
-CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
-LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
-RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
-FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
-SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
-DAMAGES.
-
- END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-\f
- Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
-
- If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
-everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
-redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
-ordinary General Public License).
-
- To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
-safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
-convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
-"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
- <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
- Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
-
- This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
- modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public
- License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
- version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
-
- This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
- Library General Public License for more details.
-
- You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public
- License along with this library; if not, write to the Free
- Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
-
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
-You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
-school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
-necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
-
- Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
- library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.

-If you compile wxWindows on Linux for the first time and don't like to read
-install instructions just do (in the base dir):
-
-> ./configure --with-motif
-> make
-> su <type root password>
-> make install
-> ldconfig
-> exit
-
-Afterwards you can continue with
-
-> make
-> su <type root password>
-> make install
-> ldconfig

-If you want to remove wxWindows on Unix you can do this:

-> su <type root password>
-> make uninstall
-> ldconfig
-> exit
-
-* The expert case
------------------
-
-If you want to do some more serious cross-platform programming with wxWindows,
-such as for GTK and Motif, you can now build two complete libraries and use
-them concurretly. For this end, you have to create a directory for each build
-of wxWindows - you may also want to create different versions of wxWindows
-and test them concurrently. Most typically, this would be a version configured
-with --enable-debug_flag and one without. Note, that only one build can currently
-be installed, so you'd have to use local version of the library for that purpose.
-For building three versions (one GTK, one Motif and a debug version of the GTK
-source) you'd do this:
-
-md buildmotif
-cd buildmotif
-../configure --with-motif
-make
-cd ..
-
-md buildgtk
-cd buildgtk
-../configure --with-gtk
-make
-cd ..
-
-md buildgtkd
-cd buildgtkd
-../configure --with-gtk --enable-debug_flag
-make
-cd ..
-
-* The most simple errors
-------------------------
-
-You get errors during compilation: The reason is that you probably have a broken
-compiler, which includes almost everything that is called gcc. If you use gcc 2.8
-you have to disable optimsation as the compiler will give up with an internal
-compiler error.
-
-If there is just any way for you to use egcs, use egcs. We cannot fix gcc.
-
-You get immediate segfault when starting any sample or application: This is either
-due to having compiled the library with different flags or options than your program -
-typically you might have the __WXDEBUG__ option set for the library but not for your
-program - or due to using a broken compiler (and its optimisation) such as GCC 2.8.
-
-* The most simple program
--------------------------
-
-Now create your super-application myfoo.app and compile anywhere with
-
-g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs --cflags` -o myfoo
-
-* General
------------------------
-
-The Unix variants of wxWindows use GNU configure. If you have problems with your
-make use GNU make instead.
-
-If you have general problems with installation, read my homepage at
-
- http://wesley.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~wxxt
-
-for newest information. If you still don't have any success, please send a bug
-report to one of our mailing lists (see my homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF
-YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION
-YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried...
-
-* GUI libraries
------------------------
-
-wxWindows/Motif requires the Motif library to be installed on your system. As
-an alternative, you may also use the free library "lesstif" which implements
-most of the Motif API without the licence restrictions of Motif.
-
-You can get the newest version of the Lesstif from the lesstif homepage at:
-
- http://www.lesstif.org
-
-* Additional libraries
------------------------
-
-wxWindows/Motif requires a thread library and X libraries known to work with threads.
-This is the case on all commercial Unix-Variants and all Linux-Versions that are
-based on glibc 2 except RedHat 5.0 which is broken in many aspects. As of writing
-this, these Linux distributions have correct glibc 2 support:
-
- - RedHat 5.1
- - Debian 2.0
- - Stampede
- - DLD 6.0
- - SuSE 6.0
-
-You can disable thread support by running
-
-./configure "--disable-threads"
-make
-su <type root password>
-make install
-ldconfig
-exit
-
-NB: DO NOT COMPILE WXGTK WITH GCC AND THREADS, SINCE ALL PROGRAMS WILL CRASH UPON
-START-UP! Just always use egcs and be happy.
-
-* Building wxGTK on OS/2
---------------------------
-
-Please send comments and question about the OS/2 installation
-to Andrea Venturoli <a.ventu@flashnet.it> and patches to
-the wxWindows mailing list.
-
-You'll need OS/2 Warp (4.00FP#6), X-Free86/2 (3.3.3 or newer),
-Lesstif (0.89.1 or newer), emx (0.9d fix 1), flex (2.5.4),
-yacc (1.8), unix like shell, e.g. korn shell (5.2.13),
-Autoconf (2.13), GNU file utilities (3.6),
-GNU text utilities (1.3), GNU shell utilites (1.12), m4 (1.4),
-sed (2.05), grep (2.0), Awk (3.0.3), GNU Make (3.76.1).
-
-Open an OS/2 prompt and switch to the directory above.
-First set some global environment variables we need:
-
-SET CXXFLAGS=-Zmtd -D__ST_MT_ERRNO__
-SET CFLAGS=-Zmtd -D__ST_MT_ERRNO__
-SET OSTYPE=OS2X
-SET COMSPEC=sh
-
-Notice you can choose whatever you want, if you don't like OS2X.
-
-Now, run autoconf in the main directory and in the samples, demos
-and utils subdirectory. This will generate the OS/2 specific
-versions of the configure scripts. Now run
- configure --with-motif
-as described above.
-
-To verify Lesstif installation, configure will try to compile a
-sample program that requires X headers/libraries to be either
-available via C_INCLUDE_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH or you need to
-explicitly set CFLAGS prior to running configure.
-
-If you have pthreads library installed, it will be autodetected
-and the library will be compiled with thread-support.
-
-Note that configure assumes your flex will generate files named
-"lexyy.c", not "lex.yy.c". If you have a version which does
-generate "lex.yy.c", you need to manually change the generated
-makefile.
-
-* Building wxMotif on SGI
---------------------------
-
-Using the SGI native compilers, it is recommended that you
-also set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS before running configure. These
-should be set to :
-
-CFLAGS="-mips3 -n32"
-CXXFLAGS="-mips3 -n32"
-
-This is essential if you want to use the resultant binaries
-on any other machine than the one it was compiled on. If you
-have a 64bit machine (Octane) you should also do this to ensure
-you don't accidently build the libraries as 64bit (which is
-untested).
-
-The SGI native compiler support has only been tested on Irix 6.5.
-
-* Create your configuration
------------------------------
-
-Usage:
- ./configure options
-
-If you want to use system's C and C++ compiler,
-set environment variables CC and CCC as
-
- % setenv CC cc
- % setenv CCC CC
- % ./configure options
-
-to see all the options please use:
-
- ./configure --help
-
-The basic philosophy is that if you want to use different
-configurations, like a debug and a release version,
-or use the same source tree on different systems,
-you have only to change the environment variable OSTYPE.
-(Sadly this variable is not set by default on some systems
-in some shells - on SGI's for example). So you will have to
-set it there. This variable HAS to be set before starting
-configure, so that it knows which system it tries to
-configure for.
-
-Configure will complain if the system variable OSTYPE has
-not been defined. And Make in some circumstances as well...
-
-
-* General options
--------------------
-
-Given below are the commands to change the default behaviour,
-i.e. if it says "--disable-threads" it means that threads
-are enabled by default.
-
-Many of the confiugre options have been thoroughly tested
-in wxWindows snapshot 6, but not yet all (ODBC not).
-
-You have to add --with-motif on platforms, where Motif is
-not the default (on Linux, configure will deafult to GTK).
-
- --without-gtk Don't use the GIMP ToolKit (GTK)
-
- --with-motif Use either Motif or Lesstif
- Configure will look for both.
-
-The following options handle the kind of library you want to build.
-
- --disable-threads Compile without thread support. Threads
- support is also required for the
- socket code to work.
-
- --disable-shared Do not create shared libraries.
-
- --disable-optimise Do not optimise the code. Can
- sometimes be useful for debugging
- and is required on some architectures
- such as Sun with gcc 2.8.X which
- would otherwise produce segvs.
-
- --enable-profile Add profiling info to the object
- files. Currently broken, I think.
-
- --enable-no_rtti Enable compilation without creation of
- C++ RTTI information in object files.
- This will speed-up compilation and reduce
- binary size.
-
- --enable-no_exceptions Enable compilation without creation of
- C++ exception information in object files.
- This will speed-up compilation and reduce
- binary size. Also fewer crashes during the
- actual compilation...
-
- --enable-no_deps Enable compilation without creation of
- dependency information.
-
- --enable-permissive Enable compilation without creation of
- giving erros as soon as you compile with
- Solaris ANSI-defying headers...
-
- --enable-mem_tracing Add built-in memory tracing.
-
- --enable-dmalloc Use the dmalloc memory debugger.
- Read more at www.letters.com/dmalloc/
-
- --enable-debug_info Add debug info to object files and
- executables for use with debuggers
- such as gdb (or its many frontends).
-
- --enable-debug_flag Define __DEBUG__ and __WXDEBUG__ when
- compiling. This enable wxWindows' very
- useful internal debugging tricks (such
- as automatically reporting illegal calls)
- to work. Note that program and library
- must be compiled with the same debug
- options.
-
-* Feature Options
--------------------
-
-Many of the confiugre options have been thoroughly tested
-in wxWindows snapshot 6, but not yet all (ODBC not).
-
-When producing an executable that is linked statically with wxGTK
-you'll be surprised at its immense size. This can sometimes be
-drastically reduced by removing features from wxWindows that
-are not used in your program. The most relevant such features
-are
-
- --without-libpng Disables PNG image format code.
-
- --without-libjpeg Disables JPEG image format code.
-
-{ --without-odbc Disables ODBC code. Not yet. }
-
- --disable-resources Disables the use of *.wxr type
- resources.
-
- --disable-threads Disables threads. Will also
- disable sockets.
-
- --disable-sockets Disables sockets.
-
- --disable-dnd Disables Drag'n'Drop.
-
- --disable-clipboard Disables Clipboard.
-
- --disable-serial Disables object instance serialiasation.
-
- --disable-streams Disables the wxStream classes.
-
- --disable-file Disables the wxFile class.
-
- --disable-textfile Disables the wxTextFile class.
-
- --disable-intl Disables the internationalisation.
-
- --disable-validators Disables validators.
-
- --disable-accel Disables accel.
-
-Apart from disabling certain features you can very often "strip"
-the program of its debugging information resulting in a significant
-reduction in size.
-
-* Compiling
--------------
-
-The following must be done in the base directory (e.g. ~/wxGTK
-or ~/wxWin or whatever)
-
-Now the makefiles are created (by configure) and you can compile
-the library by typing:
-
- make
-
-make yourself some coffee, as it will take some time. On an old
-386SX possibly two weeks. During compilation, you'll get a few
-warning messages depending in your compiler.
-
-If you want to be more selective, you can change into a specific
-directiry and type "make" there.
-
-Then you may install the library and it's header files under
-/usr/local/include/wx and /usr/local/lib respectively. You
-have to log in as root (i.e. run "su" and enter the root
-password) and type
-
- make install
-
-You can remove any traces of wxWindows by typing
-
- make uninstall
-
-If you want to save disk space by removing unnecessary
-object-files:
-
- make clean
-
-in the various directories will do the work for you.
-
-* Creating a new Project
---------------------------
-
-1) The first way uses the installed libraries and header files
-automatically using wx-config
-
-g++ myfoo.cpp `wx-config --libs` `wx-config --cflags` -o myfoo
-
-Using this way, a make file for the minimal sample would look
-like this
-
-CC = g++
-
-minimal: minimal.o
- $(CC) -o minimal minimal.o `wx-config --libs`
-
-minimal.o: minimal.cpp mondrian.xpm
- $(CC) `wx-config --cflags` -c minimal.cpp -o minimal.o
-
-clean:
- rm -f *.o minimal
-
-This is certain to become the standard way unless we decide
-to sitch to tmake.
-
-2) The other way creates a project within the source code
-directories of wxWindows. For this endeavour, you'll need
-GNU autoconf version 2.14 and add an entry to your Makefile.in
-to the bottom of the configure.in script and run autoconf
-and configure before you can type make.

Welcome to wxWindows 2, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
Please see changes.txt for details.
+Note that there is a new contrib hierarchy for contributions,
+which mirrors the regular wxWindows hierarchy. The Object
+Graphics Library and MMedia library have been moved under
+contrib, so you may need to change your makefiles or project
+files, together with your source files. E.g. change #include "ogl.h"
+to #include <wx/ogl/ogl>.
+
+Also VC++ project files and makefiles have been made more
+consistent, so some paths and library names have changed.

-wxWindows Release Notes
------------------------
-
-2.1.13
-======
-
-- New wxEncodingConverter class.
-
-
-2.1.12
-======
-
-- New wxDateTime class to replace millenium-uncompliant wxTime
- and wxDate classes.
-
-- New wxCalendarCtrl class and sample.
-
-- New wxCmdLineParser class.
-
-- wxHTML printing and other improvements.
-
-- Life sample added.
-
-- TIFF support added to wxImage.
-
-2.1.11
-======
-
-- wxMenu no longer takes a wxFunction argument: either use
- event handlers in the menu's host window or set WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY
- to 1 in setup.h, and recompile.
-
-- wxMotif still lags behind other ports but is in much better
- shape than the 2.0.1 distribution.
-
-- Clipboard/drag and drop is still not implemented in wxMotif.
-
-- The new wxGrid implementation is in beta, but the original
- implementation can be restored by setting wxUSE_NEW_GRID
- to 0 (in wxMSW) or passing --disable-newgrid to configure
- (wxGTK/wxMSW). Pass --enable-newgrid to configure to enable
- the new implementation.
-
-- wxHTML is partially working in wxMotif. The About sample
- works, but the others exhibit refresh problems. So light
- use of wxHTML is recommended on wxMotif.
-
-- The wxHTML helpview application crashes on exit if
- using VC++ 6 in release mode and loading a large amount of
- HTML (such as the wxWindows manual generated using Tex2RTF).
- This may be a compiler problem and will be investigated
- for 2.1.12.
- [ fixed since 2.1.13 ]
-
-- wxHTML printing has spacing problems under Windows, and may not
- work fully under Unix. Hopefully this will be resolved for 2.1.12.
- [ fixed since 2.1.12 ]
-
-- wxStaticBox under Windows obscures controls placed within it:
- this will be fixed in 2.1.12.
-
-- wxStaticBitmap under Windows doesn't respect the transparency mask.
