Latest Version of setup.h?

[-LeetGamer-]

I tried compiling with CodeBlocks and I got an error saying "wx/setup.h cannot be found." So I googled "wx/setup.h" and got this: http://svn.wxwidgets.org/viewvc/wx/wxWi ... 90&view=co . I tried recompiling and got some more errors on some define lines. It said to read the top of the file and I read this:

/*
**************************************************
PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU GET AN ERROR IN THIS FILE!
**************************************************

If you get an error saying "wxUSE_FOO must be defined", it means that you
are not using the correct up-to-date version of setup.h. This happens most
often when using svn or daily snapshots and a new symbol was added to
setup0.h and you haven't updated your local setup.h to reflect it. If
this is the case, you need to propagate the changes from setup0.h to your
setup.h and, if using makefiles under MSW, also remove setup.h under the
build directory (lib/$(COMPILER)_{lib,dll}/msw[d][dll]/wx) so that
the new setup.h is copied there.

If you get an error of the form "wxFoo requires wxBar", then the settings
in your setup.h are inconsistent. You have the choice between correcting
them manually or commenting out #define wxABORT_ON_CONFIG_ERROR below to
try to correct the problems automatically (not really recommended but
might work).
*/

As you can see, it says I don't have the newest version of setup.h. So, with all this said, what's the latest version of setup.h?

[doublemax]

You should use the setup.h that came with the source codes you got.

Which platform/wxWidgets version are you using?

I'm using 2.9.2, and there was no setup.h in the include/wx folder.

I'm using 2.9.2, and there was no setup.h in the include/wx folder.

That's correct and that's why i asked what platform you were using.

E.g. on Linux it will be created while running "configure".
If you're on Windows, please read <wx>/docs/msw/install.txt and find the section for your ide/compiler.

Hi, doublemax,

I know this is a 12-year-old question, but I am having the same problem today.

My situation is this:
I am working in Windows 10.
I have a CodeLite workspace containing a C++ wxwidgets main program and a C-language dll.
The C dll needs to call some of the C++ procedures, so I'm writing a Wrapper dll per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/435 ... with-a-c-c.
I'm following the directions in the final post, from yzt.

I created a new project in the CodeLite workspace called Wrapper_Code. Wrapper.cpp is the only file in its project.

Here is my Wrapper.h file:

Code: Select all

#ifndef WRAPPER_H
#define WRAPPER_H

// Make sure functions are exported with C linkage under C++ compilers.
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
{                                       // Export the code below with C linkage.
#endif                                  // Close this block below.

#include "datatypes.h"                  //  2

void*   Settings_Class_create   ();

void    Settings_Class_release  (void* Settings_Class);

void    Settings_Class_sendCommandToSerialDevice
           (void*   Settings_Class,
            int     cmd,
            int     params,
            int     id);

#ifdef __cplusplus
}               // Export the following code with C linkage.
#endif

#endif // WRAPPER_H

Here is my Wrapper.cpp file:

Code: Select all

#include "Settings_Class.h"             //  5

// Wrapper code.

//  Creates an instance of the C++ class Settings_Class.  Do this first in the C file.

/*extern "C"*/ void* Settings_Class_create ()
{
    return new Settings_Class;
}   // Settings_Class_create

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  Destroys an instance of the C++ class Settings_Class.  Do this last in the C file.

/*extern "C"*/ void Settings_Class_release (void* Settings_Class)
{
    delete static_cast<Settings_Class*> (Settings_Class);
}   // Settings_Class_release

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  This procedure invokes the C++ procedure, and passes along the arguments to the C++ side.

/*extern "C"*/ void Settings_Class_sendCommandToSerialDevice
           (void* Settings_Class,
            int cmd,
            int params,
            int id)

{

    static_cast<Settings_Class*> (Settings_Class)->sendCommandToSerialDevice (cmd,params,id);

}   // Settings_Class_sendCommandToSerialDevice

Settings_Class is the name of the C++ class containing the C++ procedures that the C procedure wants to call. Here is Settings_Class.h:

When I went to compile and link, I got the following error messages.

I searched for reasons why I could get errors like this, and found your dozen-year-old post here. I followed your directions and searched in my C:\wxWidgets folder for all occurrences of setup.h. I had three in what looked like would be Windows folders:

• C:\wxWidgets\include\wx\msw\setup.h
  C:\wxWidgets\lib\gcc_lib\mswu\wx\setup.h
  C:\wxWidgets\lib\gcc_lib\mswud\wx\setup.h

What was the difference between them? I compared the files to each other using Beyond Compare: they are identical. Here is a listing for one of them; sorry it's so long.

Anyway, you can see in the setup.h listing that the compiler variables that the error messages complained were missing, are actually already defined. So that may mean that the setup.h files listed above aren't even being used.

What can I do to resolve those error messages? Suggestions?

Thanks.

[doublemax]

What's the first wx header you include inside ut_gui.h? If it's not "wx/wx.h" try adding that.

[ColleenKobe]

Thank you for replying, doublemax.

The first wx header inside ut_gui.h used to be

#include <wx/string.h>

Now the wx files in the ut_gui.h file #include list are just these:

#include <wx/wx.h> // 5z
#include <wx/string.h> // 6

I also edited the wrapper procedures to do more what I need them to do, and also renamed them to align with what I needed.

Ideas?

What if the error message about setup.h not being the latest-and-greatest is correct? I checked https://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/, and I see "Latest Development Release: 3.1.1 / Released: February 19, 2018"

and

"Latest Stable Release: 3.0.4 / Released: March 8th, 2018 / API Stable Since: November 11th, 2013".

The timestamp on my files on my computer is July 10, 2017, which is earlier than 3.1.1 and 3.0.4. Do I need to re-download and re-compile wxWidgets? I'd prefer to avoid upgrading in the middle of a project, but I will if I have to.

That would only be an issue, if you get the error only for very few #defines. Here it seems that setup.h is not included at all.

Check "datatypes.h", that's the only file left that can be responsible.

Hi, doublemax,

Datatypes.h is just a collection of type definitions that I created. I had trouble in the past with using multiple compilers and IDEs in the same project, but the compilers and IDEs had different definitions for the length of a "word" (is it 16 bits, or 32?) and an "int" (32 bits, or 64?), and whether they were signed or unsigned. This file was my way of eliminating doubt.

Have I introduced a problem by having datatypes.h? It doesn't include any other file. What should I be looking for?

Colleen

[doublemax]

Honestly, i'm out of ideas.

Try to narrow it down by creating a minimal sample and add the suspicious header files one after another until the error shows up.

[ColleenKobe]

Thanks, doublemax. I'll do that.

Hello, Don't know if it's always the case, but I see this kind of error when using CodeLIte here: https://forums.codelite.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=3186. It's a thread from 2015, but it talks about fixed naming convention for wxWidgets-libs path (eg. gcc481TDM_dll instead of just gcc_dll); and a way going through wx-config.exe to get rid of this limitation. Well! this said, I don't use CodeLite, so I can't see if it's still relevant or not...

The above normally only applies if you are downloading wxWidgets built binaries; should not apply using self-built binaries.
No idea where the posters binaries were built.
Edit: Or even whether the poster has binaries; I failed to see where he/she built wxWidgets or not.
