Do you have a question about makefiles, a compiler or IDE you are using and need to know how to set it up for wxWidgets or why it doesn't compile but other IDE's do ? Post your questions here.

Building 2.8.4 fails using nmake because it doesn't find chkconf.h. I didn't have this problem in 2.8.0.
I'm calling nmake from build\msw directory which contains makefile.vc.
Suggestions?
UPDATE: Using wxWidgets-2.8.4.zip instead of wxMSW-2.8.4.zip fixed the problem.
I'm guessing that wxMSW-2.8.4.zip contains an error causing an import statement to point to the wrong directory.
System:
wxWidgets 2.8.4 (from wxMSW-2.8.4.zip)
MSVC 2005 Express SP1 in Windows XP SP2
Log:
C:\wxWidgets-2.8.4\build\msw>nmake -f makefile.vc BUILD=release WXUNIV=0 SHARED=0 RUNTIME_LIBS=static USE_RTTI=0 UNICODE=0 USE_GUI=1 MONOLITHIC=1 CPPFLAGS="/GS /D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECIATE"

Stop.

Try

When you run "nmake -f makefile.vc" from build/msw, does it work for you?
I tried using nmake 8.00.50727.762, but it produces the same results.
BTW, version 7.00.8882 is from Microsoft Platform SDK's bin directory.
Unless the above nmake command works for you, it seems this wxWidgets-2.8.4 bug exists for MSVC 2005 and possibly MSVC 2003, too.

It works for me. I ran the command I posted and it worked. I will try again using the zip download could be it is bad.
It worked with the zip file also.

That is a fantastic idea, I'll also try downloading a different .zip and see if that works. My problem happened with:
filename: wxMSW-2.8.4.zip
md5sum: 72a614037769a7d8ad7c5eb9ed9d887c

You are running the following command before doing the nmake right?
Tim S
Code: Select all
CALL "%VS80COMNTOOLS%vsvars32.bat"

Yes, I tried calling that manually before the build. Same result.
I also tried opening the command prompt by using the "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" shortcut. Same result
I was on the road, but I'm back now and will try a different zip file.

The solution is to use wxWidgets-2.8.4.zip instead of wxMSW-2.8.4.zip.
I'm guessing that wxMSW-2.8.4.zip contains an error causing an import statement to point to the wrong directory.

If I recall directory, the main difference between wxWidgets-2.8.4.zip and wxMSW-2.8.4.zip is that wxMSW-2.8.4.zip has some files removed that are not supposed to be needed by windows. So, it may be a missing file in wxMSW-2.8.4.zip that is needed. If you figure out the needed file(s) please post it.
Thanks
