Linker should not generate manifest in Debug configuration if you include wxWidgets resources in your project.

i am very very very thankful
cos i don't know anything about this linker options
thank u very much
but when i compile the project in debug mode(not in release mode) there is a error message of windows that tell me that the app can not start because can't find msvcr90d.dll , but in release mode it runs , i searched my disk for this file and find 5-6 files with this name but i don't know why it tells me that it can't be found

Code: Select all

but when i compile the project in debug mode(not in release mode) there is a error message of windows that tell me that the app can not start because can't find msvcr90d.dll
Go to project settings -> C/C++ -> Code generation and check "Runtime Library" property. It should be "Multi Threaded Debug" for Debug build and "Multi Threaded" for Release build (this setting should have the same values for your project and wxWidgets library itself, so if your current wxWidgets build has another settings, you'll need to recompile it).

Does this problem occur on your machine where Visual Studio installed or on other machine?

Does this problem occur on your machine where Visual Studio installed or on other machine?
both, in the machine vs is installed and a pure machine, both have the same error message.
========================================
i did what u said but still i have another error message
i think i don't know what's going on under the hood
the message is as follows :
MSVCRTD.lib(MSVCR90D.dll) : error LNK2005: _free already defined in LIBCMTD.lib(dbgfree.obj)
MSVCRTD.lib(MSVCR90D.dll) : error LNK2005: _malloc already defined in LIBCMTD.lib(dbgmalloc.obj)
==========
by the way, if you are working with wxToolBox, please tell me
is it integrated with visual studio and if yes is it hard to
install it as to be integrated in vs
thank you
