wxWidgets Discussion Forum

tbreina: yep, everything works from IDE, I compiled my project fine. Again, what I did was compile the latest version. Also, do not install into Program Files, create a folder without spaces, like winbin.

The program 'wx-config' can be found in the following packages: * libwxbase2.4-dbg * libwxbase2.4-dev * libwxbase2.6-dbg * libwxbase2.6-dev * libwxbase2.8-dbg * libwxbase2.8-dev * libwxgtk2.4-dbg * libwxgtk2.4-dev * libwxgtk2.6-dbg * libwxgtk2.6-dev * libwxgtk2.8-dbg * libwxgtk2.8-dev Try: sudo apt-...

I also tried installing wxDev-C++ under Wine. But projects do not compile and all have a common error:

C:\winbin\Dev-Cpp\Projects\Makefile.win [Build Error] exe: *** [Objects/MingW/Whatever_private.res] Error -1073741819

ps: fixed that by installing newer wine version from git

* libwxbase2.4-dbg * libwxbase2.4-dev * libwxbase2.6-dbg * libwxbase2.6-dev * libwxbase2.8-dbg * libwxbase2.8-dev * libwxgtk2.4-dbg * libwxgtk2.4-dev * libwxgtk2.6-dbg * libwxgtk2.6-dev * libwxgtk2.8-dbg * libwxgtk2.8-dev This is what the terminal says. In Code Blocks I did not find where I can ente...

Guys, I've installed wxwidgets dev, but how do I link it to the project? The default paths do not work and the project doesn't compile.

I installed g++, though I found no "essential build" or anything like that in the synaptic. Installed Code Blocks (it can import dev, yay!). Installed wxWidgets from synaptic. Also installed wxSmith. Tried to build a test project, but the compiler said that there is no wx/wx.h file. Does i...

Hey guys! With lots of your help I was able to write two applications which are very useful to me. However, now I have moved to Linux. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 I would now like to compile the apps I made for linux. The audio library I used has a version for linux, so there seems to be no problem. But ...

I found the problem. In my case I forgot to specify type in function declaration:

void Something(int x);

So to generalize, void kind of problems usually appear due to a typo or that sort of simple things. Watch out for them!

Hm. So what was the problem? I have the same thing and I already spent a lot of time trying to figure out what is wrong, but so far - no luck.

When used the code you wrote, got an error: wxGetApp undeclared.

However, I tried this and it worked:
thanks for the help, doublemax!

Okay, thanks guys, I will try it.

My programm already can catch key events globally, so there shouldn't be much problem!

Yeah, I need multiplatform. Funny if this is not possible - seems like simple functionality.

My app - the app that I am currently running. For instance, I am running Notepad and from within Notepad I want to be able to press a key and another Notepad opens.

I would like to fire up another instance of the app by, say, pressing a key. Is that possible and if yes - then how? I did search the forum and wiki and documentation. Found wxExecute, but I am not sure this is the right thing.

doublemax: thank you very much, got it!
